How Souk Ahras's prayer times are worked out
From Souk Ahras, the Qibla is 109° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,494 km (2,171 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Souk Ahras's own coordinates (36.29°N, 7.95°E), not a national average. That is why Souk Ahras's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Souk Ahras timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Souk Ahras lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 37 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:13 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 29m near June down to 11h 14m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Souk Ahras 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 Besbes, Drean and Guelma. Each is only a few minutes off Souk Ahras'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
