Time & prayer in Sohar
Local time in Sohar falls within the Asia/Muscat 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 24.3° in the northern hemisphere, Sohar'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 Sohar are calculated using Umm al-Qura University, Makkah. The five daily prayers track the sun, so each one drifts a little earlier or later as the seasons turn.
