What time is it in Disuq right now?

The time in Disuq, Egypt is 6:24 pm, 18:24 on a 24 hour clock, on Thursday November 5, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the Africa/Cairo rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.

Disuq sits at 31.13 degrees north and 30.65 degrees east, in the subtropical belt and 3,462 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 30.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 0.6 degrees east of that line. Those 0.6 degrees are worth 2 minutes 35 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 11:41 am rather than on the stroke of twelve.

Where Disuq is on the map

The marker sits at the coordinates this whole page is computed from, so the sun times, the distances and the solar noon above all belong to this exact point rather than to the wider metropolitan area.

Time difference between Disuq and major cities

Every row below is computed at this instant, so daylight saving on either side is already in it. A positive figure means that city's clock reads later than Disuq.

Best time to call Disuq

Treating a working day as 9am to 6pm on both sides, this is the window the two cities genuinely share. Some of these pairs have no shared working hour at all, which is worth knowing before a meeting is proposed.

Cities on Africa/Cairo time

75 of our cities keep Africa/Cairo, so every one of them reads 6:24 pm at this moment and changes its clocks on the same night as Disuq. Nearest first:

Moon phase over Disuq tonight

The moon is a waning crescent tonight, 26.0 days into its cycle and about 13% lit. The next full moon falls on November 24, 2026 at 4:53 pm Cairo time, and the next new moon on November 9, 2026 at 9:01 am. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Disuq clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.

When the clocks change in Disuq

The next change is on Friday, April 30, 2027, 175 days from now, when the clocks in Disuq go forward 1 hour at 11:59 pm and the offset moves from UTC+2 to UTC+3.

Two things follow from that. Any standing call with Disuq shifts by an hour on that date unless the other side moves the same weekend, and every offset printed on this page is the offset for today rather than a fixed property of the city.

How far Disuq is from other cities

Great-circle distance, computed from the coordinates rather than road mileage. The nearest city we cover to Disuq is Damanhur, Egypt at 20 km, and the furthest is Tauranga, New Zealand at 16,788 km, which is 84% of the way to being exactly opposite.

The antipode of Disuq

Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Disuq, Egypt and you come out at 31.13 degrees south, 149.35 degrees west. That point is in the South Pacific Ocean. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Tauranga, New Zealand, 3,227 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 5:24 am on Friday.

The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 31.13 degrees north becomes 31.13 degrees south, and 30.65 degrees east becomes 149.35 degrees west. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Disuq is no exception. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC-10, roughly twelve hours from Disuq, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.

Sunrise and sunset in Disuq

Today the sun rises in Disuq at 6:16 am and sets at 5:06 pm, giving 10 hours 50 minutes of daylight. The dedicated page for this city carries the month by month table, the longest and shortest days of 2026, the golden and blue hour bands at both ends of the day, and all three twilight stages: sunrise and sunset times in Disuq.

Sun and moon in Disuq today

The sun is up in Disuq for 10 hours 50 minutes today, from 6:16 am to 5:06 pm. The moon rises in Disuq at 2:26 am and sets at 2:45 pm. The next phase is the new moon on November 9, 2026. It is 15% lit at the moment, a waning crescent, thinning by about 7.6 percentage points a day.

Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.

Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.

Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

Prayer times in Disuq

Seven days from November 5, 2026, computed for Disuq, Egypt at 31.13 degrees north, 30.65 degrees east, on the clock of Africa/Cairo. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Disuq, Egypt, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.

Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.

Qibla direction from Disuq

From Disuq, Egypt the qibla is 137.6 degrees on a true compass, which is southeast, or 42.4 degrees west of due south. The Kaaba is 1,414 km away, 879 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.

That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Disuq, Egypt to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.

The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Disuq, Egypt before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.
