Prayer times in Zhoukou — common questions

What time is Fajr in Zhoukou today?

Fajr in Zhoukou begins at 04:01 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 Zhoukou?

From Zhoukou, the Qibla is 280.7° from true north — roughly W. 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 Zhoukou?

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 much does daylight change through the year in Zhoukou?

Day length in Zhoukou 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.

How far is Zhoukou from Makkah?

Zhoukou lies approximately 7348 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.
