About Kaédi
Kaedi is the largest city and administrative center of the Gorgol Region in southern Mauritania, set on the Senegal River border with neighboring Senegal and lying roughly 435 km southeast of the national capital, Nouakchott. As a regional hub on the country's fertile southern fringe, it serves a predominantly Muslim community for whom the five daily prayers shape the rhythm of daily life. This page provides daily prayer times for Kaedi, kept current for the city's location.
Prayer Times in Kaedi
Prayer times for Kaedi are calculated using the Muslim World League method, a widely used standard across Mauritania and the wider Muslim world. The city observes West Africa Time (the Africa/Nouakchott zone, equivalent to GMT) year-round, with no daylight saving adjustment, so the clock does not shift between seasons. Because Kaedi sits at a low latitude of about 16 degrees north, daylight length varies only modestly through the year: summer days are a little longer and winter days a little shorter, but the difference is far smaller than in higher-latitude regions. As a result, Fajr and Isha shift gradually across the seasons rather than swinging dramatically. The qibla, the direction of prayer toward the Kaaba in Mecca, lies at a bearing of about 75 degrees from Kaedi, roughly east-northeast. The times in the live table above reflect the current date for the city.
