How Zayed City's prayer times are worked out

From Zayed City, the Qibla is 263° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,446 km (899 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Zayed City's own coordinates (23.65°N, 53.71°E), not a national average. That is why Zayed City's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Zayed City timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Zayed City lies well west inside its Dubai time zone. So the sun peaks about 36 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 15h 08m near June down to 12h 06m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Zayed City come from the Dubai Awqaf authority. The Dubai method sets Fajr when the sun is 18.2° below the horizon, and Isha at 18.2°. 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 Musaffah, Abu Dhabi and Mohammed Bin Zayed City. Each is only a few minutes off Zayed City's clock.
