How Tessaoua's prayer times are worked out

From Tessaoua, the Qibla is 71° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,474 km (2,158 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Tessaoua's own coordinates (13.76°N, 7.99°E), not a national average. That is why Tessaoua's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Tessaoua timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Tessaoua lies well west inside its Niamey time zone. So the sun peaks about 37 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:26 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 16m near June down to 12h 36m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Tessaoua 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 Katsina, Maradi and Zinder. Each is only a few minutes off Tessaoua's clock.
