Prayer Times in Kita, Mali
Kitaprayer times are calculated based on the city's precise geographic coordinates (13.0389°N, 9.4882°W) using the Muslim World League calculation method — the standard followed by most mosques in Mali. Times shown are for today's date and update automatically at midnight.
The five daily prayers — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — are calculated from the sun's position relative to Kita's latitude and longitude. As the sun's declination changes throughout the year, prayer times shift by several minutes each day. This is why a Kita prayer time calendar for the full month is shown below — so you can plan ahead without checking daily.
How Kita's prayer times are worked out
Kita sits 5,299 km (3,292 miles) from the Kaaba in Mecca, so the Qibla from here is 73° from true north — you face east to pray. Fajr and Isha depend on how far the sun drops below the horizon, and Mali follows the Muslim World League method set by the Muslim World League: Fajr begins when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha when it reaches 17°. A city that used ISNA's 15° instead would get a noticeably different Fajr — which is why the method, not just the coordinates, decides the answer.
Day length is what really moves the timetable in Kita. Measured with the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast here — from Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 13m around June, while the shortest is roughly 12h 38m in December: a swing of 1h 35m across the year. That spread is set by Kita's latitude (13.04°N); cities nearer the equator barely vary, while far-northern ones swing by many hours.
One local quirk worth knowing: Dhuhr in Kita does not fall at 12:00. Because the city sits well west within its Africa/Bamako time zone, the sun peaks about 46 minutes after clock noon, and Dhuhr follows the sun rather than the clock — today it is at 12:45 PM. The nearest cities we also publish times for are Kati, Kalaban Koro, Dialakorodji — close enough that their times differ from Kita's by only a few minutes.
Prayer times in the land of Djenné and Timbuktu
Mali — about 95% Muslim, predominantly Maliki with deep Sufi currents — coordinates its religious life through the High Islamic Council (HCIM), while Ramadan is declared by the national moon-sighting commission. This page applies the Muslim World League calculation (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) to this city's own coordinates. Mali keeps GMT year-round with no daylight saving; Bamako at 8°W sees solar noon roughly half an hour after clock noon, and the Sahel latitude keeps seasonal swing modest — Fajr and Maghrib move gently across the year compared with northern countries.
The world's greatest mud-brick monuments
No country's mosques look like Mali's. The Great Mosque of Djenné — the largest mud-brick building in the world, rebuilt in its present form in 1907 and part of a UNESCO World Heritage old town — is renewed every year in the crépissage, when the whole city replasters its walls by hand before the rains. In Timbuktu, the Djinguereber Mosque has stood since 1327, raised on the orders of Mansa Musa after his legendary pilgrimage to Mecca; its design is traditionally attributed to the Andalusian poet al-Sahili, though modern scholarship credits the local Saharan building tradition. These earthen sanctuaries have hosted the same five daily prayers for the better part of a millennium.
