How Yamoussoukro's prayer times are worked out

From Yamoussoukro, the Qibla is 67° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 5,105 km (3,172 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Yamoussoukro's own coordinates (6.82°N, 5.28°W), not a national average. That is why Yamoussoukro's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Yamoussoukro sits just 6.82°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 48m. The shortest is about 12h 59m. That is a swing of only 0h 49m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Yamoussoukro 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 Toumodi, Oumé and Bouaflé. Each is only a few minutes off Yamoussoukro's clock.
