Sig's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Algeria. They are drawn from Sig's own coordinates (35.5283°N, 0.1937°W). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Sig's prayer times are worked out

From Sig, the Qibla is 101° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,179 km (2,597 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Sig's own coordinates (35.53°N, 0.19°W), not a national average. That is why Sig's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Sig timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Sig lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 69 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:59 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 23m near June down to 11h 16m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Sig 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 Mohammadia, Assi Bou Nif and Mascara. Each is only a few minutes off Sig's clock.
