Alexandria prayer times overview

The Alexandria prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.

Local time in Alexandria is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.

Alexandria geographic location is 31.2001°N, 29.9187°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.

Alexandria prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.

The daytime interval in Alexandria today is 13 часов 32 минуты — from sunrise at 06:20 to Maghrib at 19:52. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.

In Alexandria the period from Maghrib (19:52) to Fajr (04:42) lasts 8 часов 50 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.

In summer in Alexandria the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.

When preparing for prayer in Alexandria, it is convenient to check Fajr (04:42), Maghrib (19:52) and Isha (21:19) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Alexandria

QuestionFor what reason does the Alexandria prayer schedule not match other cities?
Answer

Each city has its own geographic coordinates, and it is precisely by them that sunrise and sunset are calculated. Because the Earth rotates and its axis is tilted, prayer times at different points cannot coincide. Latitude determines the length of day and night, longitude determines the moment the sun passes certain positions, and the time zone brings the calculation to local time. The sum of these factors makes the schedule unique for each city.

QuestionHow often is the prayer schedule for Alexandria updated?
Answer

We update the schedule in Alexandria daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.

QuestionCan this schedule be used for suhur and iftar in Alexandria?
Answer

Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (04:42) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (19:52) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.

QuestionCan the schedule of a neighbouring city be relied on in Alexandria?
Answer

It is better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Alexandria it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
