About Lagos and its timings

Lagos is a city of islands and lagoon on the Gulf of Guinea, grown from a Yoruba harbour into the largest urban area in Africa. It splits between commercial islands and a residential mainland, with the bridges between them carrying its daily movement. Its Muslim community is long established in southwestern Nigeria, and the central mosque on Lagos Island is one of its landmarks.

Lagos lies close to the equator, so its times barely move across the year and Fajr stays near a quarter past five in every season.

Elevation: 11 m
Population (estimate): 16,500,000 (2024 estimate)
Origins: A Yoruba settlement on lagoon islands
Main religious landmark: Lagos Central Mosque
