Qibla direction in Sohar
262.7° from north west
Distance to the Kaaba: 1,761 km along the shortest path (great circle).
Today the Sun does not line up with the qibla during daylight.
The Sun passes directly over Makkah on May 28, 2027 at 13:18 and on July 16, 2027 at 13:27 (local time): wherever it is daytime, shadows then point away from the qibla.
The year 2026 in Sohar
Time of the five prayers on every day of the year (method: Oman Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs).
- Fajr

Over the year 2026, Fajr moves by 1 h 43 min and Maghrib by 1 h 41 min in Sohar, clock changes included; the latest Isha falls at 20:34 on June 22.
Sohar does not change its clocks in 2026: prayer times drift from day to day without any jump.
In Sohar, daylight lasts 13 h 39 min on June 17, the longest day, and 10 h 38 min on December 16, the shortest.
What latitude changes in Sohar
At 24.3° latitude, the Sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon every night of the year: Fajr and Isha at 18° exist all year round in Sohar.
When the angle is not reached, the “Oman Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs” method uses the middle of the night: in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on no day.
In Sohar, times follow the country’s reference method, Oman Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs (Fajr at 18°, Isha at 18°).
