Ta’if Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Ta’if, Saudi Arabia

Prayer times in Ta’if are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (21.27°N). We use the Umm al-Qura method, the one followed across Saudi Arabia. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Ta’if's times use the Umm al-Qura method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Saudi Arabia. They are drawn from Ta’if's own coordinates (21.2703°N, 40.4158°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Ta’if's prayer times are worked out

From Ta’if, the Qibla is 286° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 63 km (39 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ta’if's own coordinates (21.27°N, 40.42°E), not a national average. That is why Ta’if's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ta’if timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ta’if lies well west inside its Riyadh time zone. So the sun peaks about 26 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:24 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 54m near June down to 12h 12m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ta’if come from Umm al-Qura University, Makkah. The Umm al-Qura method sets Fajr when the sun is 18.5° below the horizon, and Isha 90 minutes after Maghrib. 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 Ash Shafā, Mecca and Al Līth. Each is only a few minutes off Ta’if's clock.
