Khartoum is the capital city of Sudan and the seat of Khartoum State. It stands at the point where the Blue Nile and the White Nile join to form the Nile, in the northeast of the country, at an elevation of roughly 382 metres above sea level.
With a population of about 6.5 million in the city itself and an estimated 7.1 million across the Greater Khartoum area, it is the largest urban centre in Sudan and the country's principal hub. As the national capital, it anchors much of Sudan's administrative, commercial, and cultural life.
Prayer Times in Khartoum
Khartoum keeps Central Africa Time (UTC+2) all year with no daylight saving, so the prayer schedule shifts only with the seasons rather than with a clock change. At about 15.5 degrees north the city lies fairly close to the tropics, so the variation across the year is modest: summer days run a little longer, pushing Isha somewhat later and Fajr earlier, while winter days are shorter and bring Maghrib to the earlier evening, but the swing is far gentler than in higher-latitude cities. Times on this page are calculated with the Egyptian General Authority of Survey method.
Ramadan in Khartoum
During Ramadan, the daily fast in Khartoum runs from Fajr to Maghrib, so those two times set the start of the pre-dawn suhoor cutoff and the moment of iftar each evening. Because the city sits at a relatively low latitude near the tropics, the length of the fasting day stays moderate and does not vary as dramatically as it would in cities much farther north or south.
The exact daily Fajr and Maghrib times shift gradually as Ramadan moves through the seasons over the years. For the current dates, check the live prayer-time grid on this page each day, since it updates automatically for Khartoum's location and the Egyptian General Authority of Survey method used here.
Prayer Time Questions for Khartoum
What calculation method is used for prayer times in Khartoum?
Prayer times for Khartoum on this page use the Egyptian General Authority of Survey method, one of the widely used standards across northeastern Africa.
Does Khartoum observe daylight saving time?
No. Khartoum stays on Central Africa Time (UTC+2) throughout the year, so prayer times move only with the natural change of the seasons and not with any clock adjustment.
Which direction is the Qibla from Khartoum?

How much do prayer times change through the year in Khartoum?
Because Khartoum sits at about 15.5 degrees north, fairly close to the tropics, the seasonal change is moderate. Day length varies less than it does farther from the equator, so Fajr, Maghrib, and Isha drift gradually rather than swinging sharply between summer and winter.
What time zone does Khartoum use for prayer times?
Khartoum uses Central Africa Time, which is UTC+2. All prayer times shown on this page are expressed in that local time.
Why might the times here differ slightly from my local mosque?
Small differences are normal. Mosques may follow a different calculation method or angle convention, or round the call to prayer for convenience, so it is always best to confirm with your local mosque for congregational prayers.
