Prayer times in El Obeid — common questions
What time is Fajr in El Obeid today?
Fajr in El Obeid begins at 04:30 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 El Obeid?
From El Obeid, the Qibla is 46.7° 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 El Obeid?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Sudan. 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 much does daylight change through the year in El Obeid?
Day length in El Obeid ranges from about 11.3 hours at midwinter to 12.9 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1.6 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is El Obeid from Makkah?
El Obeid lies approximately 1370 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.
