Coordinates for Port Said: 31.2653, 32.3019. Time zone Africa/Cairo (UTC+3 · EEST) already includes daylight saving when the zone observes it, so you do not add or subtract an hour by hand in August. The listed population is about 750,000 people.

For the latitude of Port Said, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:26 and Maghrib is 19:17. Dhuhr (12:51) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Egypt, and why this page is calculated from Port Said’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

The Egyptian General Authority of Survey method is the starting point on this Port Said 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. Egyptian printed calendars use the Survey Authority angles (Fajr 19.5°, Isha 17.5°), which make Fajr earlier than MWL.

Travellers through Port Said 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 Port Said is 143.8° from true north (SE), about 1,326 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.

Nearby timetables: prayer times in Cairo (170 km), prayer times in Giza (174 km), prayer times in Alexandria (227 km), prayer times in Luxor (621 km), prayer times in Aswan (800 km). Neighbouring cities share almost the same latitude, so Fajr and Isha usually differ by one to four minutes — mostly longitude and the minute the time zone snaps to.

This page is an astronomical estimate, not a fatwa and not a substitute for the announcement in your local masjid. Some congregations publish a one- to three-minute precaution. If your mosque uses a different Fajr angle, switch the method above or apply a manual minute offset. For personal prayer, a coordinate-based calculation for Port Said is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
