Prayer Times in Saïda, Algeria
Prayer times in Saïda are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (34.83°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Algeria. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Saïda's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Algeria. They are drawn from Saïda's own coordinates (34.8303°N, 0.1517°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Saïda's prayer times are worked out
From Saïda, the Qibla is 100° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,134 km (2,569 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Saïda's own coordinates (34.83°N, 0.15°E), not a national average. That is why Saïda's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Saïda timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Saïda lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 68 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:58 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 16m near June down to 11h 20m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Saïda 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 Mascara, Sidi Bel Abbes and Sig. Each is only a few minutes off Saïda's clock.

Who sets prayer times in Algeria
Algeria's mosque framework is set by the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Wakfs. Its lunar-crescent committee is the only body competent to fix the start of the Hijri months, so Ramadan and Eid are declared nationally by sighting. The calculation commonly associated with Algeria uses a Fajr angle of 18° and an Isha angle of 17°. Algeria is a Maliki country, so Asr is called at the first shadow rather than the later Hanafi second-shadow time.
Djamaa el Djazaïr
Algiers is home to Djamaa el Djazaïr, the Great Mosque of Algiers, inaugurated in February 2024. It is now the third-largest mosque in the world, after the sanctuaries of Mecca and Medina. Its prayer hall holds around 37,000 worshippers and the wider compound as many as 120,000. Its minaret is the tallest in the world at 265 metres, and contains a museum of Islamic culture inside the tower itself. It is a landmark visible across the bay of Algiers.
