Prayer Times in Ḩawallī, Kuwait

Ḩawallī's times use the Kuwait method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Kuwait. They are drawn from Ḩawallī's own coordinates (29.3328°N, 48.0286°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Ḩawallī's prayer times are worked out

From Ḩawallī, the Qibla is 225° from true north. Face southwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,204 km (748 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ḩawallī's own coordinates (29.33°N, 48.03°E), not a national average. That is why Ḩawallī's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Ḩawallī timetable through the year. With the Kuwait method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 37m around June. It eases to 11h 41m by December. That is a 3h 56m swing, set by the city's latitude of 29.33°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ḩawallī come from Kuwait's Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs. The Kuwait method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17.5°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Ḩawallī sits east of its Kuwait meridian. The sun peaks about 5 minutes before noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:45 AM. We also publish times for nearby Salmiya, As Sālimīyah and Ar Rumaythīyah. Each is only a few minutes off Ḩawallī's clock.
