Prayer times in Cairo

Prayer times for Cairo, Egypt, computed for 2026-07-13. Today Fajr begins at 04:19 and Maghrib at 19:59 (Africa/Cairo time), a fast of 15 hours and 40 minutes between the two. Sunrise (Shuruq) is at 06:03, Dhuhr at 13:02, Asr at 16:37 and Isha at 21:30. Cairo sits at 30.0444 N, 31.2357 E, home to about 9.540.000 people, and the Qibla bearing from here is 136,1 degrees from true north. Calculation method: Egyptian General Authority of Survey.

The five salat in Cairo: today and tomorrow

Both tables are here on purpose. The site rebuilds once a day in universal time and a single HTML file is served to every timezone, so claiming only "today" would be false for a few hours across part of the world. That is why Cairo shows today and tomorrow, and the calculation block above flags which of the two applies by the clock on your device. Shuruq is sunrise, sitting between Fajr and Dhuhr.

Prayer calendar for the next 30 days in Cairo

The next 30 days for Cairo at a glance, to plan the month. Each row is recomputed at build time from the position of the sun; Shuruq is sunrise.

How far each time drifts from one day to the next in Cairo

Near the solstices the daily step is tiny; near the equinoxes Fajr and Isha move fastest. The change column carries the real shift for Cairo from today to tomorrow, living proof that the page renews on every build.

Geography of the times in Cairo

The Kaaba, in Mecca, lies 1.287 km from Cairo in a straight line, toward the southeast (136,1 degrees from true north): that is where the Qibla points. The sun crosses its highest point 62 minutes after local clock noon, which is why Dhuhr begins at 13:02. Today the span between Fajr and Maghrib, the daily fast, runs 15 hours and 40 minutes in Cairo.

Calculation method in Cairo

What separates one calculation authority from another is a single number: the angle of the sun under the horizon that defines Fajr at dawn and Isha at dusk. Cairo follows the Egyptian General Authority of Survey, adopted across the region, with Fajr at 19.5 degrees, Isha at 17.5 degrees. Sunrise (Shuruq), solar noon (Dhuhr) and sunset (Maghrib) hardly move from one method to the next. Asr, however, shifts with the school of jurisprudence, and the default used here is Shafi (shadow reaches once the object height). In the Hanafi school Asr comes later.

Honesty and sources

Treat this table as a verifiable starting point, not the final word: the one who calls the prayer in Cairo is the local mosque, and its authority prevails over any calculation. Different authorities land a few minutes apart, and it is common to add an ihtiyat of precaution to Fajr or to push Isha later. Underneath, these are the Meeus solar formulas applied to 30.0444 N, 31.2357 E (Africa/Cairo timezone) by the open adhan-js library, MIT licensed by Batoul Apps. Ramadan and Eid are left out on purpose, because they hinge on sighting the hilal and on proclamation, not on arithmetic. And the interactive part is private: the calculations happen in your browser and your location, if granted, remains on the device.
