How Miri's prayer times are worked out

From Miri, the Qibla is 291° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 8,191 km (5,090 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Miri's own coordinates (4.40°N, 113.99°E), not a national average. That is why Miri's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Miri sits just 4.40°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the JAKIM method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 47m. The shortest is about 13h 16m. That is a swing of only 0h 31m 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 Miri come from JAKIM, Malaysia's federal Islamic authority. The JAKIM 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 Marudi, Bandar Seri Begawan and Labuan. Each is only a few minutes off Miri's clock.
