Coverage Across Saudi Arabia

The directory currently includes 8 cities in Saudi Arabia. Each city keeps its own coordinates and IANA time zone, so the clocks and solar calculations on the linked pages are tied to that location rather than copied from the capital.

Within this city set, Tabuk is the furthest north and Abha the furthest south, a latitude span of about 10.2°. That geographic separation is why day length, dawn and sunset can differ even when the civil clock is the same.

Tabuk and Dammam are the east-west extremes represented here, about 13.6° of longitude apart. Longitude changes when the sun reaches local noon and the horizon, so one sunrise, sunset or prayer timetable should not be reused for every city.
