Prayer Times in Bekasi, Indonesia

What these times mean for Bekasi

Every time on this page traces back to one pair of numbers: 6.23° S, 107.00° E, the position of Bekasi itself. Two towns an hour apart see the sun rise at different moments, and since Fajr and Maghrib follow the sun rather than the clock, those minutes carry straight through to the timetable.

Ramadan timings

Suhoor ends at Fajr — 4:12 am today — and the fast breaks at Maghrib, 5:45 pm. Around 13 hours and 33 minutes without food or water today. The monthly table further down shows the window widening or narrowing day by day, which helps when planning meals a week ahead.

Through the year

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

Qibla from Bekasi

Face west-north-west — roughly 295° on a compass — and you are pointed at the Kaaba. The distance works out to about 7,937 kilometres, or 4,932 miles.

The shape of the day

It starts in the dark, with Fajr at 4:12 am. You have until 5:26 am, when the sun comes up. After the sun peaks, Dhuhr is prayed at 11:36 am, and Asr at 3:59 pm. Sunset brings Maghrib at 5:45 pm; Isha is the last, at 7:15 pm. That is some 12 hours and 19 minutes between the sun coming up and going down.

The last third of the night

From Isha to Fajr is around 8 hours and 57 minutes at the moment. For anyone praying tahajjud, the last third of that period is the part traditionally singled out — work back from Fajr rather than forward from Isha to find it.

Why your mosque may differ slightly

Calculations come from Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib are largely settled across methods; Fajr and Isha are where authorities part company. Asr is Hanafi on this page, so expect it later than a Shafi timetable would show. A small gap between this page and your nearest masjid is nothing to worry about; go with theirs.

Elsewhere in Indonesia
