Prayer times by region in Niger

Our pages in Niger are organised in 8 regions. Open your region, then your city: every page has its own coordinates, which is why the times change by a few minutes between cities, east to west and north to south.

How prayer times are calculated in Niger

Pages for Niger 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+1). In the capital Niamey, Fajr is around 5:06 AM and Maghrib 7:21 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 5:53 AM and Maghrib at 6:29 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 20 min to 12 h 55 min.

Our cities in Niger stretch from Téra in the west to Nguigmi in the east, and from Arlit in the north to Gaya in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Nguigmi about 49 minutes before Téra, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also differs between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Niamey cannot replace that of your own city.
