Prayer Times in Ar Riqqah, Al Ahmadi

Tahajjud time, Islamic midnight and Duha in Ar Riqqah

Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Ar Riqqah, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.

Islamic midnight

22:51Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr

Last third of the night (Tahajjud)

00:50Until Fajr at 04:49

Ishraq

06:25About 15 minutes after sunrise (06:10)

Duha

06:25 – 11:32From Ishraq until Dhuhr (11:32)

Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 06:10), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:32) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 16:54). The schools differ in the details, for example about the time after Asr and about make-up prayers, so ask your own scholar if you are unsure.

The night is counted from Maghrib to the next Fajr. Times are calculated for Ar Riqqah with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Ar Riqqah does not change its clocks; times stay on Asia/Kuwait all year. How times are calculated

Ar Riqqah, the Sun and the clock

Ar Riqqah is in Al Ahmadi and has about 52,000 people. The nearest larger city is Al Aḩmadī, 8 km to the south. Ar Riqqah lies 3.1° east of the 45° E meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest about 12 minutes before 12:00 on average, around 11:48, and Dhuhr comes earlier than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Ar Riqqah: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 84° above the horizon in June and only 37° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Ar Riqqah range from 10h 17m in December to 14h 1m in June, a difference of 3h 44m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.

Maghrib time Ar Riqqah compared with nearby cities

Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Ar Riqqah, calculated with the same method.
