Prayer times in Matala — common questions
What time is Fajr in Matala today?
Fajr in Matala begins at 05:07 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.
Which direction is the Qibla from Matala?
From Matala, the Qibla is 34.5° from true north — roughly NE. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.
Which calculation method is used for Matala?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Angola. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.
How far is Matala from Makkah?
Matala lies approximately 4846 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.
How much does daylight change through the year in Matala?
Day length in Matala ranges from about 11.3 hours at midwinter to 13 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1.7 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
