Prayer Times in Tripoli — December 2027

Reading the December 2027 table

Accurate prayer times for Tripoli on Monday, 31 August 2026: Fajr 05:08, Shuruq 06:41, Dhuhr 13:08, Asr 16:44, Maghrib 19:35, Isha 20:57. Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Africa/Tripoli timezone (UTC+2 · EET), the Egyptian General Authority of Survey convention and Standard (single-shadow) Asr.

Tripoli is listed under Tripoli in Libya. The engine uses 32.8872 latitude and 13.1913 longitude with IANA zone Africa/Tripoli. A mosque a few kilometres away will usually match these times to the minute; a different city, even in the same metro area, can drift by two to five minutes because longitude shifts solar noon. The urban area is on the order of 1.1 million people.

For the latitude of Tripoli, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:41 and Maghrib is 19:35. Dhuhr (13:08) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Libya, and why this page is calculated from Tripoli’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

The Egyptian General Authority of Survey method is the starting point on this Tripoli 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.

Tripoli (Libya) has both long-established and newer Muslim communities. Jumu'ah times are set by each mosque and are not computed here — only the five daily prayers and sunrise.

Qibla from Tripoli is 109.2° from true north (ESE), about 2,916 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 Benghazi (652 km), prayer times in Sfax (305 km), prayer times in Tunis (515 km), prayer times in Constantine (715 km), prayer times in Naples (891 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 Tripoli is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
