Prayer times in Houyu — common questions
What time is Fajr in Houyu today?
Fajr in Houyu begins at 04:05 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 Houyu?
From Houyu, the Qibla is 285.6° from true north — roughly WNW. 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 Houyu?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across China. 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 Houyu from Makkah?
Houyu lies approximately 8000 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 Houyu?
Day length in Houyu ranges from about 10.5 hours at midwinter to 13.8 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 3.3 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
