Rabak's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Sudan. They are drawn from Rabak's own coordinates (13.1809°N, 32.7400°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Rabak's prayer times are worked out

From Rabak, the Qibla is 38° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,185 km (736 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Rabak's own coordinates (13.18°N, 32.74°E), not a national average. That is why Rabak's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Rabak timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 14m around June. It eases to 12h 38m by December. That is a 1h 36m swing, set by the city's latitude of 13.18°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Rabak 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. Rabak sits close to its Khartoum meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 11:47 AM today. We also publish times for nearby Kosti, Sennar and Ad Douiem. Each is only a few minutes off Rabak's clock.
