Amgala (أمكالا) is a small locality of the interior of the Moroccan Atlantic Sahara, in the Laâyoune-Sakia El Hamra region. Isolated deep in the desert, away from the large towns, it lives in an environment of vast arid expanses where settlement is very sparse. Its prayer times follow, as everywhere in the Kingdom, the calculation of the Ministry of Habous.
Amgala is a locality of the desert expanses of the Moroccan Sahara, in a region of traditionally nomadic settlement. Religious practice here follows the Maliki rite, within the Hassani culture of the Sahara.
Religious life in Amgala sits within the Maliki Islamic tradition and the Hassani culture of the Sahara. In these very sparsely populated spaces, the mosque remains the landmark of the daily prayer and the Friday gathering. Ramadan keeps a communal dimension marked by the solidarity typical of the desert.
As everywhere in Morocco, the Hijri calendar in Amgala follows rukyat, the official sighting of the crescent moon announced by the Ministry of Habous. This method can produce a one-day difference from the Saudi calendar, notably for Ramadan and the two Eids. During Ramadan, Morocco suspends summer time, shifting all prayer times by about an hour for the duration of the month.
At a very low latitude of the Sahara, Amgala has prayer times of great seasonal stability: day length varies only a little over the year. Its western position makes sunsets late by the clock. The switch to standard time during Ramadan shifts all the times by about an hour. The published times follow the Ministry of Habous method.
