How prayer times are calculated in Algeria
Pages for Algeria use the Algerian Ministry of Religious Affairs method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon. Times are shown in local time (UTC+1). In the capital Algiers, Fajr is about 3:37 AM and Maghrib 8:10 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 6:23 AM and Maghrib at 5:35 PM. Daylight there ranges from 9 h 39 min to 14 h 41 min.
Our cities in Algeria stretch from Tindouf in the west to Djanet in the east, and from Collo in the north to In Guezzam in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Djanet about 71 minutes before Tindouf, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also varies between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Algiers cannot replace that of your own city.
