Prayer times in Chahār Qal‘ah — common questions

What time is Fajr in Chahār Qal‘ah today?

Fajr in Chahār Qal‘ah begins at 03:38 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.

Which direction is the Qibla from Chahār Qal‘ah?

From Chahār Qal‘ah, the Qibla is 251.6° from true north — roughly WSW. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.

Which calculation method is used for Chahār Qal‘ah?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Afghanistan. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.

How far is Chahār Qal‘ah from Makkah?

Chahār Qal‘ah lies approximately 3101 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.

How much does daylight change through the year in Chahār Qal‘ah?

Day length in Chahār Qal‘ah ranges from about 9.9 hours at midwinter to 14.4 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 4.5 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
