About San
San is an urban commune and town in the Segou Region of southern Mali, serving as the administrative seat of the Cercle of San. It sits on the inland plains about 10 kilometres south of the Bani River, at an elevation of roughly 276 metres. Long a regional market and trading centre, San anchors a predominantly Muslim community whose daily rhythm is shaped by the five obligatory prayers.

Prayer Times in San
Prayer times for San are calculated using the Muslim World League method, a widely used standard across West Africa for determining the Fajr and Isha twilight angles. The city observes West Africa Time (UTC+0, the Africa/Bamako zone) and does not change its clocks for daylight saving, so the times shift only gradually with the seasons rather than jumping by an hour. Because San lies at a low latitude of about 13 degrees north, fairly close to the equator, the length of daylight stays relatively stable year-round: days are modestly longer around the June solstice and modestly shorter near December, but the spread between summer and winter is small compared with cities at higher latitudes. As a result, Fajr and Isha never drift to the extremes seen farther north, and the daily timetable remains fairly consistent month to month. The qibla from San points toward the Kaaba in Mecca at a bearing of roughly 73 degrees, that is, toward the east-northeast. The live timetable on this page reflects the current day's Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha times for San.
Frequently Asked Questions About Prayer Times in San
What method is used to calculate prayer times in San?
The times shown for San use the Muslim World League calculation method, a standard commonly applied across Mali and the wider West African region. It defines the twilight angles used to determine the start of Fajr (dawn) and Isha (night). The remaining prayers are derived from the sun's position over San's exact coordinates.
Which direction is the qibla from San?
From San, the qibla, the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca that Muslims face during prayer, lies at a bearing of about 73 degrees, which is toward the east-northeast. You can use this bearing with a compass or a qibla-finder app to align for prayer.
Do prayer times in San change much during the year?
Not dramatically. San sits at roughly 13 degrees north latitude, relatively close to the equator, so the length of daylight stays fairly stable across the seasons. Fajr and Isha arrive a little earlier or later as the year progresses, but the variation is modest, and Mali does not observe daylight saving time, so the clocks are never shifted by an hour.
