How Moroni's prayer times are worked out

From Moroni, the Qibla is 354° from true north. Face north to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,702 km (2,300 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Moroni's own coordinates (11.70°S, 43.26°E), not a national average. That is why Moroni's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Moroni timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Moroni lies well west inside its Comoro time zone. So the sun peaks about 15 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 11:52 AM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 07m near December down to 12h 42m in June.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Moroni 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 Kaambooni, Kismayo and Marka. Each is only a few minutes off Moroni's clock.
