Time & prayer in Harare
Local time in Harare falls within the Africa/Harare zone. The clock and date at the top of this page update live to this timezone, so the readings stay accurate wherever you are.
Sitting at a latitude of about 17.8° in the southern hemisphere, Harare's day length varies gently across the seasons. That is why its sunrise, sunset and day-length figures change from month to month, and why prayer times here follow the position of the sun rather than a fixed clock.
The prayer times shown for Harare are calculated using the Muslim World League. The five daily prayers track the sun, so each one drifts a little earlier or later as the seasons turn. For the full picture you can open the monthly timetable, the live prayer clock, or the Qibla direction for Harare from the tools on this site.
