Prayer times in El Jem — common questions

What time is Fajr in El Jem today?

Fajr in El Jem begins at 03:51 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 Jem?

From El Jem, the Qibla is 110.8° from true north — roughly ESE. 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 Jem?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Tunisia. 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 El Jem from Makkah?

El Jem lies approximately 3222 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 El Jem?

Day length in El Jem ranges from about 9.8 hours at midwinter to 14.5 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 4.7 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
