Dar Bouazza Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Dar Bouazza, Morocco

Dar Bouazzaprayer times are calculated based on the city's precise geographic coordinates (33.5153°N, 7.8168°W) using the Muslim World League calculation method — the standard followed by most mosques in Morocco. Times shown are for today's date and update automatically at midnight.

The five daily prayers — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — are calculated from the sun's position relative to Dar Bouazza's latitude and longitude. As the sun's declination changes throughout the year, prayer times shift by several minutes each day. This is why a Dar Bouazza prayer time calendar for the full month is shown below — so you can plan ahead without checking daily.

How Dar Bouazza's prayer times are worked out

Dar Bouazza sits 4,844 km (3,010 miles) from the Kaaba in Mecca, so the Qibla from here is 93° from true north — you face east to pray. Fajr and Isha depend on how far the sun drops below the horizon, and Morocco follows the Muslim World League method set by the Muslim World League: Fajr begins when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha when it reaches 17°. A city that used ISNA's 15° instead would get a noticeably different Fajr — which is why the method, not just the coordinates, decides the answer.

Day length is what really moves the timetable in Dar Bouazza. Measured with the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast here — from Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 16h 06m around June, while the shortest is roughly 11h 25m in December: a swing of 4h 41m across the year. That spread is set by Dar Bouazza's latitude (33.52°N); cities nearer the equator barely vary, while far-northern ones swing by many hours.

One local quirk worth knowing: Dhuhr in Dar Bouazza does not fall at 12:00. Because the city sits well west within its Africa/Casablanca time zone, the sun peaks about 40 minutes after clock noon, and Dhuhr follows the sun rather than the clock — today it is at 1:38 PM. The nearest cities we also publish times for are Bouskoura, Casablanca, Lahraouyine — close enough that their times differ from Dar Bouazza's by only a few minutes.
