How Gimbi's prayer times are worked out

From Gimbi, the Qibla is 17° from true north. Face north to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,428 km (887 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Gimbi's own coordinates (9.17°N, 35.83°E), not a national average. That is why Gimbi's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Gimbi sits just 9.17°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 57m. The shortest is about 12h 50m. That is a swing of only 1h 07m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Gimbi 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 Nek’emtē, Metu and Dembī Dolo. Each is only a few minutes off Gimbi's clock.
