Prayer Times in Egypt Governorates for Wednesday, August 26, 2026
As daylight shifts across the Nile Valley and coastal plains, residents prepare for daily worship according to the prayer schedule for Wednesday, August 26, 2026. Published by فلسطيو 48, the comprehensive timetable outlines exact timings for dawn, noon, afternoon, sunset, and night prayers across major Egyptian governorates, factoring in the distinct geographical coordinates from Alexandria to Aswan.
Maintaining strict punctuality for daily prayers remains a central pillar of community life in Egypt. Because the country spans a significant latitudinal range, the exact minute of solar alignment varies measurably between northern coastal cities and southern tourist centers. This variation requires careful regional tracking to ensure religious obligations are fulfilled precisely within their prescribed windows.
Cairo and Coastal Timings on August 26, 2026
In the capital city of Cairo, schedules place the dawn prayer, or Fajr, at 4:57 AM. According to the data provided by فلسطيو 48, the subsequent daily prayers follow a steady progression: Dhuhr arrives at 12:57 PM, Asr at 4:32 PM, Maghrib at 7:25 PM, and Isha settles the evening schedule at 8:46 PM.
A short distance north along the Mediterranean coast, Alexandria registers a slightly later shift due to its coastal positioning. In Alexandria, Fajr begins at 5:00 AM, Dhuhr at 1:02 PM, Asr at 4:38 PM, Maghrib at 7:31 PM, and Isha at 8:53 PM. These adjustments highlight the careful astronomical calculations required to account for regional geography.
Schedules Across the Canal Zone, Sinai, and Upper Egypt
Moving eastward toward the Suez Canal, the city of Ismailia observes an earlier schedule. Data from فلسطيو 48 shows Fajr in Ismailia at 4:52 AM, Dhuhr at 12:53 PM, Asr at 4:28 PM, Maghrib at 7:21 PM, and Isha concluding the daily cycle at 8:43 PM.
Further south in the resort hub of Sharm El-Sheikh, the Red Sea topography shifts the timing once again. Residents and visitors in the coastal city experience Fajr at 4:50 AM, Dhuhr at 12:45 PM, Asr at 4:17 PM, Maghrib at 7:10 PM, and Isha at 8:29 PM.
In the far south of the country, Aswan presents the most pronounced geographical contrast. Known as the land of gold, Aswan records Fajr at 5:02 AM, Dhuhr at 12:50 PM, Asr at 4:18 PM, Maghrib at 7:12 PM, and Isha at 8:28 PM. This southern timeline reflects how solar noon occurs differently compared to northern urban centers.
As seasonal daylight hours continue to evolve through the late summer, relying on verified daily timetables provides the stability needed for personal and community scheduling. Observers across every governorate can coordinate their daily routines with confidence, grounding their day in the established rhythms of the local prayer schedule.
