How prayer times are calculated in Libya

Pages for Libya use the Egyptian General Authority of Survey method: Fajr when the sun is 19.5° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17.5° below the horizon. Times are shown in local time (UTC+2). In the capital Tripoli, Fajr is about 4:07 AM and Maghrib 8:19 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 6:30 AM and Maghrib at 6:05 PM. Daylight there ranges from 9 h 59 min to 14 h 19 min.

Our cities in Libya stretch from Ghat in the west to Tobruk in the east, and from Zuwarah in the north to Al Jawf in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Tobruk about 55 minutes before Ghat, 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 Tripoli is no substitute for that of your own city.

Ramadan in Libya

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected around 8 February 2027), the fast in Tripoli lasts about 12 h 19 min at the start of the month and 13 h 14 min at the end, with imsak at 6:16 AM and iftar at 6:46 PM on the first day. These times change from one city to another, so open your city’s page for its exact Ramadan timetable.

To find your city quickly, type its name in the search box at the top of the page, or go through the regions above. On every page you will find today’s times with a countdown, a monthly timetable you can print and links to nearby cities.
