How New Halfa's prayer times are worked out

From New Halfa, the Qibla is 33° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 811 km (504 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from New Halfa's own coordinates (15.33°N, 35.60°E), not a national average. That is why New Halfa's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the New Halfa timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. New Halfa lies well east inside its Khartoum time zone. So the sun peaks about 14 minutes before clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 11:36 AM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 23m near June down to 12h 30m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for New Halfa 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 Kassala, Al Qadarif and Wad Medani. Each is only a few minutes off New Halfa's clock.
