About Diourbel
Diourbel is a city in west-central Senegal, set inland on the Sahelian plains of the country's groundnut-growing belt. Sitting in the West Africa Time zone (UTC+0), it observes Islamic prayer on a daily cycle that shifts only modestly through the year thanks to its low latitude near 14.7° north. This page provides current, locally calculated times for the five daily prayers (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha) along with sunrise, helping residents and visitors keep an accurate schedule.
Prayer times in Diourbel
Prayer times for Diourbel are calculated using the Muslim World League method, a widely used standard across West Africa for determining the dawn (Fajr) and nightfall (Isha) twilight angles. The city keeps West Africa Time (UTC+0) year-round and does not observe daylight saving, so the schedule is governed purely by the sun's natural movement. Because Diourbel lies at roughly 14.7° north, close to the tropics, day length varies only moderately between seasons: summer days are somewhat longer and winter days somewhat shorter, which gradually shifts Fajr and Isha earlier or later rather than dramatically. The qibla, the direction of prayer toward the Kaaba in Mecca, lies to the east-northeast at a bearing of about 74 degrees. The live table above reflects each day's exact times for this location.
