Khartoum Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Khartoum, Sudan

Khartoum's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Sudan. They are drawn from Khartoum's own coordinates (15.5518°N, 32.5324°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Khartoum's prayer times are worked out

From Khartoum, the Qibla is 49° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,008 km (627 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Khartoum's own coordinates (15.55°N, 32.53°E), not a national average. That is why Khartoum's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Khartoum timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 24m around June. It eases to 12h 29m by December. That is a 1h 55m swing, set by the city's latitude of 15.55°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Khartoum 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. Khartoum sits close to its Khartoum meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 11:56 AM today. We also publish times for nearby Khartoum North, Omdurman and Al Manāqil. Each is only a few minutes off Khartoum's clock.
