Prayer Times in Al Qaţīf, Eastern Province

Jummah time Al Qaţīf

Friday prayer (Jummah) replaces Dhuhr on Fridays. The calculated Dhuhr start in Al Qaţīf this Friday is 11:26; the khutbah and congregation times are set by each masjid, so check with your local mosque.

Tahajjud time, Islamic midnight and Duha in Al Qaţīf

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

Islamic midnight

22:43Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr

Last third of the night (Tahajjud)

00:41Until Fajr at 04:37

Ishraq

06:14About 15 minutes after sunrise (05:59)

Duha

06:14 – 11:25From Ishraq until Dhuhr (11:25)

Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 05:59), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:25) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 16:50). 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 Al Qaţīf with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

—Asia/Riyadh

Al Qaţīf does not change its clocks; times stay on Asia/Riyadh all year. How times are calculated

Al Qaţīf, the Sun and the clock

Al Qaţīf is in Eastern Province and has about 98,000 people. The nearest larger city is Dammam, 17 km to the south-southeast. Al Qaţīf lies 5° east of the 45° E meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest about 20 minutes before 12:00 on average, around 11:40, and Dhuhr comes earlier than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Al Qaţīf: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 87° above the horizon in June and only 40° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Al Qaţīf range from 10h 28m in December to 13h 49m in June, a difference of 3h 21m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.

Maghrib time Al Qaţīf 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 Al Qaţīf, calculated with the same method.
