How Khamis Mushait's prayer times are worked out

From Khamis Mushait, the Qibla is 319° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 461 km (287 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Khamis Mushait's own coordinates (18.30°N, 42.73°E), not a national average. That is why Khamis Mushait's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Khamis Mushait timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Khamis Mushait lies well west inside its Riyadh time zone. So the sun peaks about 17 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:14 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 39m near June down to 12h 22m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Khamis Mushait come from Umm al-Qura University, Makkah. The Umm al-Qura method sets Fajr when the sun is 18.5° below the horizon, and Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib. 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 Abha, Bariq and Şabyā. Each is only a few minutes off Khamis Mushait's clock.
