How Mellit's prayer times are worked out

From Mellit, the Qibla is 60° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,714 km (1,065 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Mellit's own coordinates (14.13°N, 25.55°E), not a national average. That is why Mellit's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Mellit timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Mellit lies well west inside its Khartoum time zone. So the sun peaks about 26 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:16 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 18m near June down to 12h 34m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Mellit 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 El Fasher, Kas and Nyala. Each is only a few minutes off Mellit's clock.
