Prayer Times in Omdurman
Omdurman observes Central Africa Time (UTC+2) all year with no daylight saving, so prayer times shift only with the natural change of the seasons rather than any clock change. At roughly 16 degrees north of the equator, the city sits at a low latitude, so the swing in day length across the year is modest: summer days are somewhat longer, pushing Fajr a little earlier and Isha a little later, while winter days are slightly shorter, bringing Maghrib earlier in the evening. The times shown here are calculated using the Egyptian General Authority of Survey method.
Ramadan in Omdurman
During Ramadan, the daily fast in Omdurman runs from Fajr (dawn) to Maghrib (sunset), so these two prayer times set the start and end of each day's fast. Because the city keeps Central Africa Time (UTC+2) year-round with no daylight saving, the fasting window changes only gradually from day to day as the season progresses.
At Omdurman's low latitude of about 16 degrees north, the length of the fasting day stays relatively moderate across the year compared with cities far from the equator, without the extremes of very long or very short days. As Ramadan moves earlier through the seasons over the years, the city's fasting hours lengthen modestly in summer and shorten in winter. Checking the daily Fajr and Maghrib times on this page is the simplest way to confirm exactly when to begin the pre-dawn suhoor and when to break the fast at iftar.
