About Gedaref
Gedaref, also spelled El-Gadarif, is the capital of Sudan's Al Qadarif state in the east of the country. It sits on the highway linking the national capital, Khartoum, with Gallabat on the Ethiopian border, roughly 410 kilometres from Khartoum, and lies at an elevation of about 634 metres. For the city's Muslim community, the five daily prayers structure the rhythm of the day, and the times shift gradually through the year with the changing length of daylight. The live timetable on this page lists today's Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha for Gedaref so you can plan worship around accurate, locally calculated times.
Prayer times in Gedaref
Prayer times for Gedaref are calculated using the Egyptian General Authority of Survey method, a standard widely applied across Sudan and the wider region. The city keeps Africa/Khartoum time year-round and does not observe daylight saving, so the published times reflect local clock time without seasonal clock changes. Because Gedaref lies at a low latitude of about 14 degrees north, the length of day stays relatively stable across the seasons: daylight is a little longer in summer and a little shorter in winter, but the swing is modest compared with cities farther from the equator. As a result, Fajr and Isha do not drift to the extremes seen at higher latitudes, and Dhuhr, Asr, and Maghrib move only gradually from month to month. When facing the Kaaba in Makkah for prayer, the qibla from Gedaref points to a bearing of roughly 29 degrees, that is, toward the north-northeast.

Do prayer times in Gedaref change much during the year?
They change only moderately. Gedaref is at a low latitude of around 14 degrees north, so days are a little longer in summer and a little shorter in winter, but the difference is small.
