How Khenchela's prayer times are worked out

From Khenchela, the Qibla is 107° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,533 km (2,195 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Khenchela's own coordinates (35.44°N, 7.14°E), not a national average. That is why Khenchela's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Khenchela timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Khenchela lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 40 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:30 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 22m near June down to 11h 17m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Khenchela 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 Aïn Beïda, Oum el Bouaghi and Cheria. Each is only a few minutes off Khenchela's clock.
