How prayer times are calculated in Eswatini

Times for Eswatini 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+2). In the capital Mbabane, Fajr is about 3:29 AM and Maghrib 6:47 PM around 21 December, while around 21 June Fajr comes at 5:20 AM and Maghrib at 5:12 PM. Daylight there ranges from 10 h 29 min to 13 h 48 min.

Our cities in Eswatini stretch from Mbabane in the west to Siteki in the east, and from Piggs Peak in the north to Nhlangano in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Siteki about 3 minutes before Mbabane, 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 Mbabane is no substitute for that of your own city.

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected on 8 February 2027), the fast in Mbabane lasts about 14 h 32 min at the start of the month and 13 h 43 min at the end, with imsak at 4:02 AM and iftar at 6:44 PM on the first day. These times change from one city to another, so open your city’s page for its exact Ramadan timetable.
