How Gombe's prayer times are worked out

From Gombe, the Qibla is 64° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,298 km (2,049 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Gombe's own coordinates (10.29°N, 11.17°E), not a national average. That is why Gombe's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Gombe timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Gombe lies well west inside its Lagos time zone. So the sun peaks about 24 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:20 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 02m near June down to 12h 47m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Gombe 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 Pindiga, Biu and Numan. Each is only a few minutes off Gombe's clock.
