How Laghouat's prayer times are worked out

From Laghouat, the Qibla is 101° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,868 km (2,403 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Laghouat's own coordinates (33.80°N, 2.87°E), not a national average. That is why Laghouat's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Laghouat timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Laghouat lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 57 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:47 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 08m near June down to 11h 24m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Laghouat 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 Messaad, Aflou and Djelfa. Each is only a few minutes off Laghouat's clock.
