Prayer times in Kano, Nigeria are worked out from the position of the sun over the city’s coordinates (12.0022°, 8.5920°). By default this page uses the Muslim World League method — Fajr begins when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha sun 17° below the horizon — with the standard Asr rule. Nearby, Abuja, Lagos follow the same national method.

Across the year, Fajr in Kano is earliest around June (about 4:43 AM) and latest around February (about 5:36 AM). Daylight ranges from roughly 11h 26m in the shortest days to 12h 50m in the longest, which is why Isha moves between 7:07 PM and 8:07 PM.

To face the Qibla from Kano, turn to 68.3° from true north (ENE). The Ka‘bah in Makkah is 3,479 km away along the shortest great-circle path.
