About Thiès
Thiès is one of Senegal's largest cities and the capital of the Thiès Region, set on a plateau roughly 72 km (45 mi) east of the national capital, Dakar. A long-established industrial and commercial centre, it grew up around the junction of the railway lines linking Dakar with Bamako and Saint-Louis and remains a key crossroads on the N2 road. The city sits at about 14.8 degrees north and 63 m elevation, keeping its observed times for the five daily prayers (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha) and weekly Jummah closely tied to the local position of the sun across the year.
Prayer Times in Thiès
Prayer times for Thiès are calculated for its location at about 14.8 degrees north using the Muslim World League method, a widely used standard across West Africa, and are shown in West Africa Time (Africa/Dakar, UTC+0). Senegal does not observe daylight saving, so the clock does not shift between seasons. Because Thiès lies fairly close to the equator, the length of day and night stays relatively stable through the year: summer days are only modestly longer than winter days, so Fajr and Isha do not swing as widely as they do at higher latitudes. Even so, the daily schedule moves gradually with the sun, so it is best to check the live timetable each day. The qibla from Thiès points roughly east-northeast, on a bearing of about 74 degrees toward the Kaaba in Mecca.
Frequently Asked Questions About Prayer Times in Thiès
What method is used to calculate prayer times in Thiès?
The times on this page use the Muslim World League calculation method, a standard widely applied across West Africa, with results shown in West Africa Time (UTC+0).

Which direction is the qibla from Thiès?
From Thiès the qibla points roughly east-northeast, on a bearing of about 74 degrees, toward the Kaaba in Mecca. You can use this bearing with a compass or a qibla-finder app to align for prayer.
Do prayer times in Thiès change much through the year?
Because Thiès sits fairly close to the equator at about 14.8 degrees north, day length stays relatively steady, so Fajr and Isha shift less between summer and winter than they do farther from the equator. Senegal does not use daylight saving time, so there is no seasonal clock change, but the daily times still move gradually with the sun and are best checked each day.
