Dhamār's times use the Umm al-Qura method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Yemen. They are drawn from Dhamār's own coordinates (14.5427°N, 44.4051°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Dhamār's prayer times are worked out

From Dhamār, the Qibla is 328° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 905 km (562 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Dhamār's own coordinates (14.54°N, 44.41°E), not a national average. That is why Dhamār's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Dhamār timetable through the year. With the Umm al-Qura method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 22m around June. It eases to 12h 34m by December. That is a 1h 48m swing, set by the city's latitude of 14.54°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Dhamār come from Umm al-Qura University, Makkah. The Umm al-Qura method sets Fajr when the sun is 18.5° below the horizon, and Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Dhamār sits west of its Aden meridian. The sun peaks about 10 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 12:00 PM. We also publish times for nearby Ibb, Sayyān and Sanaa. Each is only a few minutes off Dhamār's clock.
