What latitude changes in Doha
At 25.3° 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 Doha.
When the angle is not reached, the “Qatar Ministry of Awqaf” method uses the middle of the night: in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on no day, and Isha is counted in minutes after sunset.
In Doha, times follow the country’s reference method, Qatar Ministry of Awqaf (Fajr at 18°, Isha 90 min after sunset).
