Prayer Times in Katlehong, South Africa

Prayer times in Katlehong

Fajr 3:56 am, Maghrib 6:22 pm, Isha 7:52 pm — that is the shape of today in Katlehong. Each of them moves slightly from one day to the next; the page rebuilds daily, so what you see is current.

Finding the qibla

From this city the direction is north-north-east, or 14° if you prefer the number. That puts the Kaaba roughly 5,457 km — 3,391 miles — from here.

The shape of the day

Fajr is at 3:56 am — early, and in darkness. You have until 5:20 am, when the sun comes up. Midday brings Dhuhr at 11:51 am; Asr comes round at 4:29 pm. The sun goes down at Maghrib, 6:22 pm, and the day ends with Isha at 7:52 pm. That gives Katlehong roughly 13 hours and 2 minutes of daylight today.

How the times are worked out

Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah is the standard applied to this page. 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 here follows the Hanafi reckoning, which places it noticeably later in the afternoon than the other schools would. Where your local mosque differs, follow the mosque — that is the timetable the congregation keeps.

If you are fasting

Suhoor closes at 3:56 am in Katlehong, with iftar at 6:22 pm. Roughly 14 hours and 26 minutes, going by today's figures. The full month is listed below if you want to see where the fast is heading.

Through the year

The seasons show here without dominating. Summer in Katlehong brings earlier Fajr times and a later Isha; winter pulls everything inward, and Maghrib can arrive while the afternoon still feels unfinished. Expect an hour or two of movement between the extremes.

The last third of the night

Katlehong gets roughly 8 hours and 4 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.
