About this tool
Times in Kuwait use the Kuwait method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, Isha when it is 17.5° below, and the standard Asr, when a shadow equals the length of its object. The times are for Kuwait City. Kuwait spans little more than 150 km, so Jahra in the west is about a minute later and Ahmadi in the south within a minute of the capital.
Over the year, Fajr in Kuwait moves from about 3:13 AM in early June to about 5:20 AM in early January, and Maghrib from about 4:50 PM in late November to about 6:52 PM in late June. Ramadan 1448 is expected to begin on 8 February 2027; on the first day, suhoor ends at about 5:12 AM and iftar is at about 5:32 PM. The Qibla from Kuwait City is 224.8° from true north, and Makkah is about 1,203 km away.
