How Mādabā's prayer times are worked out

From Mādabā, the Qibla is 160° from true north. Face south to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,212 km (753 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Mādabā's own coordinates (31.72°N, 35.79°E), not a national average. That is why Mādabā's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Mādabā timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Mādabā lies well west inside its Amman time zone. So the sun peaks about 45 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:35 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 53m near June down to 11h 32m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Mādabā 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 Marj Al Hamam, Khuraybat as Sūq and Wādī as Sīr. Each is only a few minutes off Mādabā's clock.
