How Sidikalang's prayer times are worked out

From Sidikalang, the Qibla is 293° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 6,646 km (4,129 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Sidikalang's own coordinates (2.75°N, 98.31°E), not a national average. That is why Sidikalang's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Sidikalang sits just 2.75°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Kemenag method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 41m. The shortest is about 13h 22m. That is a swing of only 0h 19m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Sidikalang come from Kementerian Agama, Indonesia's Ministry of Religious Affairs. The Kemenag method sets Fajr when the sun is 20° below the horizon, and Isha at 18°. 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 Kabanjahe, Subulussalam and Pematangsiantar. Each is only a few minutes off Sidikalang's clock.
