How Tan-Tan's prayer times are worked out

From Tan-Tan, the Qibla is 87° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 5,157 km (3,205 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Tan-Tan's own coordinates (28.44°N, 11.10°W), not a national average. That is why Tan-Tan's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Tan-Tan timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Tan-Tan lies well west inside its Casablanca time zone. So the sun peaks about 53 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:43 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 31m near June down to 11h 45m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Tan-Tan 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 Guelmim, Tiznit and Arrecife. Each is only a few minutes off Tan-Tan's clock.
