Cilegon Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Cilegon, Indonesia

Prayer times in Cilegon are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (6.01°S). We use the Kemenag method, the one followed across Indonesia. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Cilegon's times use the Kemenag method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Indonesia. They are drawn from Cilegon's own coordinates (6.0144°S, 106.0542°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Cilegon's prayer times are worked out

From Cilegon, the Qibla is 295° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 7,832 km (4,866 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Cilegon's own coordinates (6.01°S, 106.05°E), not a national average. That is why Cilegon's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Cilegon sits just 6.01°S of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Kemenag method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 54m. The shortest is about 13h 10m. That is a swing of only 0h 44m between December and June. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Cilegon come from Kementerian Agama, Indonesia's Ministry of Religious Affairs. The Kemenag method sets Fajr when the sun is 20° below the horizon, and Isha at 18°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Cilegon sits close to its Jakarta meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 12:01 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Serang, Pandeglang and Kresek. Each is only a few minutes off Cilegon's clock.
