Qibla direction from Mombasa

NESW

0.3° from true north (north, N)

Distance to the Kaaba in Makkah: 2,832 km (1,760 miles) along the great-circle route, which is the shortest path over the Earth's surface and the basis of the Qibla bearing.

A phone compass points to magnetic north, which can differ from true north by several degrees depending on where you are. Use our Qibla direction finder for a live compass.

About prayer times in Mombasa

Mombasa lies at 4.04° S, 39.67° E. Clocks there follow East Africa Time (UTC+3, time zone Africa/Nairobi) all year with no daylight saving changes, so prayer times move only gradually with the seasons. Dhuhr, which begins just after the sun passes its highest point, stays between 12:06 PM and 12:37 PM on the clock all year.

The Muslim World League angles are a common default in East Africa, where the Shafi school is the majority practice along the coast. With this method Fajr starts when the sun is 18° below the horizon before dawn, and Isha when it reaches 17° after sunset. If your mosque follows a different convention, change the method or the Asr setting above and every table on this page will update.

Being close to the equator, Mombasa sees little seasonal change: across 2026, Fajr moves only between 4:44 AM and 5:19 AM, and Maghrib between 6:12 PM and 6:43 PM. The longest and shortest days differ by just 29 minutes.

Ramadan 1448 AH: on the Umm al-Qura calendar, Ramadan is expected to run from about 8 February to 8 March 2027; the actual dates depend on moon sighting and may differ by a day in Kenya. In Mombasa, the first fast would run from Fajr at 5:16 AM to Maghrib at 6:43 PM (about 13h 27m), and by the last day from 5:18 AM to 6:37 PM (about 13h 19m). See the Ramadan guide for more.

The times on this page are the moments each prayer's time begins. On Fridays, Jumu'ah is prayed in congregation in place of Dhuhr. Mosques in Mombasa usually announce their own congregation (jama'ah) times, which are set some minutes after the start times shown here.

Prayer times in Mombasa: common questions

Which calculation method is used for prayer times in Mombasa?

By default this page uses the Muslim World League method (Fajr at 18°, Isha at 17°) with the standard (Shafi, Maliki and Hanbali) Asr time. The Muslim World League angles are a common default in East Africa, where the Shafi school is the majority practice along the coast. You can change both settings at the top of the page.

What is the Qibla direction from Mombasa?

From Mombasa, the Qibla is 0.3° clockwise from true north, roughly north. The Kaaba in Makkah is about 2,832 km (1,760 miles) away along the shortest route over the Earth's surface.

How long is the Ramadan fast in Mombasa in 2027?

Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on or around 8 February 2027 according to the Umm al-Qura calendar (the actual start depends on moon sighting and may differ by a day). In Mombasa, the fast from Fajr to Maghrib would last about 13h 27m on the first day and about 13h 19m by the last day.

Why might these times differ from my local mosque in Mombasa?

Mosques may use a different calculation method, a different Asr convention, their own safety margins of a few minutes, or local observation. The times here are the astronomical start times; congregation (jama'ah) times are usually set later by each mosque.
