How Chagni's prayer times are worked out

From Chagni, the Qibla is 17° from true north. Face north to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,216 km (756 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Chagni's own coordinates (10.96°N, 36.50°E), not a national average. That is why Chagni's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Chagni timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Chagni lies well west inside its Addis Ababa time zone. So the sun peaks about 42 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:32 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 04m near June down to 12h 45m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Chagni come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Dangila, Finote Selam and Bahir Dar. Each is only a few minutes off Chagni's clock.
