How Tlemcen's prayer times are worked out

From Tlemcen, the Qibla is 99° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,267 km (2,651 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Tlemcen's own coordinates (34.88°N, 1.31°W), not a national average. That is why Tlemcen's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Tlemcen timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Tlemcen lies well west inside its Algiers time zone. So the sun peaks about 74 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:04 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 17m near June down to 11h 20m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Tlemcen 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 Mansoûra, Maghnia and Aïn Temouchent. Each is only a few minutes off Tlemcen's clock.
