How prayer times are calculated in Yemen

Times for Yemen 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+3). In the capital Sanaa, Fajr is about 4:13 AM and Maghrib 6:36 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 5:08 AM and Maghrib at 5:38 PM. Daylight there ranges from 11 h 13 min to 13 h 02 min.

Our cities in Yemen stretch from Al Hudaydah in the west to Al Ghayḑah in the east, and from Sa'dah in the north to Aden in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Al Ghayḑah about 37 minutes before Al Hudaydah, 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 Sanaa is no substitute for that of your own city.

Ramadan in Yemen

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected around 8 February 2027), the fast in Sanaa lasts roughly 12 h 47 min at the start of the month and 13 h 08 min at the end, with imsak at 5:08 AM and iftar at 6:04 PM on the first day. Times differ 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 browse 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.
