Prayer times in Kafr ash Shaykh — common questions

What time is Fajr in Kafr ash Shaykh today?

Fajr in Kafr ash Shaykh begins at 04:46 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 Kafr ash Shaykh?

Which calculation method is used for Kafr ash Shaykh?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Egypt. 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 Kafr ash Shaykh from Makkah?

Kafr ash Shaykh lies approximately 1394 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 Kafr ash Shaykh?
