Prayer times in Mogadishu — common questions
What time is Fajr in Mogadishu today?
Fajr in Mogadishu begins at 04:47 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 Mogadishu?
From Mogadishu, the Qibla is 344.9° 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 Mogadishu?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Somalia. 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 Mogadishu?
Day length in Mogadishu ranges from about 12 hours at midwinter to 12.2 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 0.2 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Mogadishu from Makkah?
Mogadishu lies approximately 2237 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.
