Prayer times in Aracati — common questions

What time is Fajr in Aracati today?

Fajr in Aracati begins at 04:27 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 Aracati?

From Aracati, the Qibla is 67.3° from true north — roughly ENE. 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 Aracati?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Brazil. 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 Aracati from Makkah?

Aracati lies approximately 8917 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 Aracati?

Day length in Aracati ranges from about 11.9 hours at midwinter to 12.4 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 0.5 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
