About this site

This is an independent project that shows prayer times for the cities of Saudi Arabia. Each city has the five prayers and sunrise for today, tomorrow and the month, the iqamah time, the qibla direction and the city's figures through the year. It is free to read and needs no sign-up.

The site is not connected with the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, with the General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques, with Umm al-Qura University or with any official body. It does not issue the adhan or religious rulings. If our figure differs from the adhan at your mosque, follow the mosque, and for a ruling on a religious question, ask a scholar.

How the times are worked out

The site's own software calculates the times on its server. Nobody types them in and no language model produces them. The basis is solar geometry plus the Umm al-Qura criteria for each prayer. The details are on the method page and the Umm al-Qura page.

How the texts are written

The texts were written with the help of AI tools, and every page was reviewed before it went online. They follow a few rules. No time, date or weekday is typed into the text, because those come from the calculation. Nothing is said about a city or a mosque unless we have confirmed it, and no names or opening hours are invented. Religious material is limited to a verse or hadith quoted with its reference.
