Prayer Times in Omdurman, Sudan
Prayer times in Omdurman are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (15.64°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Sudan. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Omdurman's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Sudan. They are drawn from Omdurman's own coordinates (15.6445°N, 32.4777°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Omdurman's prayer times are worked out
From Omdurman, the Qibla is 49° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,006 km (625 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Omdurman's own coordinates (15.64°N, 32.48°E), not a national average. That is why Omdurman's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
Day length is what moves the Omdurman timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 25m around June. It eases to 12h 29m by December. That is a 1h 56m swing, set by the city's latitude of 15.64°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Omdurman 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. Omdurman sits close to its Khartoum meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 11:56 AM today. We also publish times for nearby Khartoum North, Khartoum and Shendi. Each is only a few minutes off Omdurman's clock.

Prayer times where the Niles meet
Sudan's religious life is deeply shaped by Sufi orders such as the Qadiriyya and Khatmiyya, whose dhikr gatherings remain part of daily life. Alongside them runs a Maliki legal tradition shared with the rest of the Sahel. This page uses the Muslim World League calculation (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) on this city's own coordinates. Note the clock. Sudan moved from UTC+3 to UTC+2 in November 2017, so older printed timetables that predate the change are an hour off. That is a real trap if you are using a timetable saved from before 2017.
Omdurman and the whirling Fridays
Greater Khartoum is really three cities — Khartoum, Omdurman and Bahri — meeting where the Blue and White Niles join. Omdurman is the spiritual heart, anchored by the Grand Mosque and the tomb of the Mahdi. On Friday afternoons the Hamed al-Nil gathering fills the cemetery square with Sufi dhikr as the sun sets. Because Sudan sits close to the equator's northern side, day length varies only moderately across the year. The five times therefore keep a steadier rhythm than in higher-latitude countries.
