Prayer times in Port Louis — common questions

What time is Fajr in Port Louis today?

Fajr in Port Louis begins at 05:23 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 Port Louis?

From Port Louis, the Qibla is 336.5° from true north — roughly NNW. 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 Port Louis?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Mauritius. 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 Port Louis from Makkah?

Port Louis lies approximately 5007 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 Port Louis?

Day length in Port Louis ranges from about 10.9 hours at midwinter to 13.4 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 2.5 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
