How Watampone's prayer times are worked out

From Watampone, the Qibla is 292° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 9,214 km (5,725 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Watampone's own coordinates (4.54°S, 120.33°E), not a national average. That is why Watampone's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Watampone sits just 4.54°S of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Kemenag method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 48m. The shortest is about 13h 15m. That is a swing of only 0h 33m between December and June. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Watampone come from Kementerian Agama, Indonesia's Ministry of Religious Affairs. The Kemenag method sets Fajr when the sun is 20° below the horizon, and Isha at 18°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Watampone sits west of its Makassar meridian. The sun peaks about 7 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:57 AM. We also publish times for nearby Sengkang, Parepare and Makassar. Each is only a few minutes off Watampone's clock.
