How El Hamma's prayer times are worked out

From El Hamma, the Qibla is 107° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,250 km (2,019 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from El Hamma's own coordinates (33.89°N, 9.80°E), not a national average. That is why El Hamma's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the El Hamma timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. El Hamma lies well west inside its Tunis time zone. So the sun peaks about 29 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:19 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 09m near June down to 11h 24m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for El Hamma 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 Gabès, Medenine and Houmt Souk. Each is only a few minutes off El Hamma's clock.
