Prayer Times in Caombo, Angola

About the times on this page

Facing the Kaaba from Caombo means turning north-east, roughly 37°. Makkah lies some 4,206 kilometres away, and the times on this page are calculated for this city specifically rather than for the country as a whole.

Season by season in Caombo

Near the equator the timetable is remarkably stable. Caombo sees close to twelve hours of daylight in every month, so Fajr and Maghrib move by minutes rather than hours across the year.

Nearby cities

3 other cities in Angola are listed on this site, each with its own calculated timetable. It is worth switching to the right one when you travel — a few hundred kilometres east or west moves Fajr and Maghrib by a noticeable margin.

How the day runs in Caombo

Fajr is at 4:12 am — early, and in darkness. By 5:26 am the sun is up and Fajr's time has passed. After the sun peaks, Dhuhr is prayed at 11:38 am, and Asr at 4:00 pm. The sun goes down at Maghrib, 5:50 pm, and the day ends with Isha at 7:20 pm. That gives Caombo roughly 12 hours and 24 minutes of daylight today.

Suhoor and iftar in Caombo

Suhoor closes at 4:12 am in Caombo, with iftar at 5:50 pm. Roughly 13 hours and 38 minutes, going by today's figures. The monthly table further down shows the window widening or narrowing day by day, which helps when planning meals a week ahead.

The last third of the night

Caombo gets roughly 8 hours and 52 minutes of night between the last prayer and the first. If you pray tahajjud, the final third of that stretch is the one to aim for; counting backwards from Fajr is the easier way to locate it.

Method and madhab

These times follow Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Methods differ mainly over Fajr and Isha, because each authority settles on a slightly different angle of the sun below the horizon — a few minutes either way is normal. Asr is Hanafi on this page, so expect it later than a Shafi timetable would show. Where your local mosque differs, follow the mosque — that is the timetable the congregation keeps.
