How prayer times are calculated in El Salvador

Pages for El Salvador use the Muslim World League 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−6). In the capital San Salvador, Fajr is about 4:11 AM and Maghrib 6:27 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 4:59 AM and Maghrib at 5:34 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 19 min to 12 h 56 min.

Our cities in El Salvador stretch from Ahuachapan in the west to La Union in the east, and from Metapán in the north to Puerto El Triunfo in the south. Because of this spread, the sun reaches its zenith in La Union about 8 minutes before Ahuachapan, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also differs between north and south, most of all in summer and winter, so the timetable of San Salvador cannot replace that of your own city.
