Prayer Times in N'Djamena, Chad
Prayer times in N'Djamena are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (12.11°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Chad. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
N'Djamena's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Chad. They are drawn from N'Djamena's own coordinates (12.1067°N, 15.0444°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How N'Djamena's prayer times are worked out
From N'Djamena, the Qibla is 65° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,829 km (1,758 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from N'Djamena's own coordinates (12.11°N, 15.04°E), not a national average. That is why N'Djamena's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
Day length is what moves the N'Djamena timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 09m around June. It eases to 12h 41m by December. That is a 1h 28m swing, set by the city's latitude of 12.11°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.
The Fajr and Isha angles for N'Djamena 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. N'Djamena sits west of its Ndjamena meridian. The sun peaks about 8 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:45 AM. We also publish times for nearby Gamboru, Bol and Bama. Each is only a few minutes off N'Djamena's clock.

Who sets prayer times in Chad
Chad is roughly half Muslim, the majority faith, concentrated in the centre and north. Like the wider Sahel, it is overwhelmingly Sunni of the Maliki school, with deep Tijaniyya and Sufi roots. No single state office prints one national timetable: mosques publish their own, and Ramadan opens on a moon sighting rather than a fixed calendar. This page applies the Muslim World League calculation (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) to the city's own coordinates. Chad keeps a single UTC+1 clock all year with no daylight saving, so the only thing that moves the timetable is the sun.
The King Faisal Mosque
N'Djamena's Grand Mosque is the King Faisal Mosque (Mosquée Roi Fayçal). It was built in the late 1970s with Saudi funding and named after King Faisal. It is the country's principal place of worship, and its complex pairs the prayer hall with libraries, lecture halls and schools. Chadian Islam follows the Maliki madhhab. So mosques call Asr on the earlier first-shadow reckoning, not the later Hanafi time. The Asr shown here is therefore the one you will actually hear announced.
Mosques in N'Djamena
Mosques in and around N'Djamena include مسجد التقوى (واداي), الجامع الكبير انجمينا, مسجد, مسجد هارازاي, Grande Mosquée and مسجد أبو بكر.

That is the congregation, called a few minutes after each prayer starts.
