Prayer Times in Kenitra, Morocco
Prayer times in Kenitra are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (34.26°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Morocco. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Kenitra's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Morocco. They are drawn from Kenitra's own coordinates (34.2610°N, 6.5802°W). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Kenitra's prayer times are worked out
From Kenitra, the Qibla is 95° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,737 km (2,943 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Kenitra's own coordinates (34.26°N, 6.58°W), not a national average. That is why Kenitra's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Kenitra timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Kenitra lies well west inside its Casablanca time zone. So the sun peaks about 35 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:11 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 13m near June down to 11h 22m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Kenitra 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 Sidi Taibi, Salé and Salé Al Jadida. Each is only a few minutes off Kenitra's clock.

Who sets prayer times in Morocco
Morocco's official prayer timetable is published by the Ministry of Habous and Islamic Affairs in Rabat, which issues times for cities across the kingdom. The calculation commonly associated with Morocco uses a Fajr angle of 19° and an Isha angle of 17°. Moroccan religious life is built on a Maliki–Ash'ari framework. The Maliki school begins Asr at the first shadow, the same point as the Shafi'i reckoning. The later Hanafi Asr is therefore not the Moroccan norm.
From al-Qarawiyyin to the Hassan II Mosque
Morocco holds one of the oldest continuously functioning centres of learning anywhere: al-Qarawiyyin in Fez, founded between 857 and 859 by Fatima al-Fihri. Marrakesh's Koutoubia Mosque was founded in 1147, its minaret finished around 1195, and it became the model for minarets across the western Islamic world. The Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca was inaugurated in 1993 and stands partly over the Atlantic. Its minaret rises 210 metres, the second tallest in the world, and is topped by a laser beam aimed toward Mecca.
