Bandar Seri Begawan is close enough to the tropics that twilight angles are usually reached every night of the year. High-latitude patches are rarely needed. In August 2026 the sun rises at 06:14 and Maghrib is at 18:28. Dhuhr (12:21) tracks astronomical noon plus a small equation-of-time correction, which is why a printed table copied from another country will not match Bandar Seri Begawan.

The Muslim World League method is the starting point on this Bandar Seri Begawan page. Fajr and Isha are defined by solar depression angles (or, for Umm al-Qura, a Maghrib-plus-minutes rule). Asr is shown with the Standard shadow factor of 1, used by the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali schools and by most Western mosque boards. If a local mosque publishes a different Fajr or Isha angle, pick that method in the selector or apply a minute offset.

Travellers through Bandar Seri Begawan should remember that airport and hotel clocks follow civil time, which this timetable already uses. Maghrib is tied to sunset at the city’s coordinates, not to the time a flight lands.

Qibla from Bandar Seri Begawan is 290.9° from true north (WNW), about 8,269 km from the Kaaba in Makkah. A phone compass is only as good as its calibration; once you have identified a wall that faces that bearing, you can mark it and stop re-measuring every day. Magnetic declination is not applied on this page — the figure is geographic, which is what a qibla diagram expects.
