How Lhokseumawe's prayer times are worked out

From Lhokseumawe, the Qibla is 292° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 6,422 km (3,991 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Lhokseumawe's own coordinates (5.18°N, 97.15°E), not a national average. That is why Lhokseumawe's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Lhokseumawe sits just 5.18°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Kemenag method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 51m. The shortest is about 13h 13m. That is a swing of only 0h 38m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Lhokseumawe come from Kementerian Agama, Indonesia's Ministry of Religious Affairs. The Kemenag method sets Fajr when the sun is 20° below the horizon, and Isha at 18°. 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 Langsa, Meulaboh and Banda Aceh. Each is only a few minutes off Lhokseumawe's clock.
