Why Fajr and Isha need an estimation rule here

At this latitude the sun does not sink a full 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so true night — and with it the astronomical basis for Fajr and Isha — does not occur for several weeks. We apply the Middle of the Night rule during that period, splitting the interval between sunset and sunrise. Your local mosque in Paamiut may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Paamiut — common questions

What time is Fajr in Paamiut today?

Fajr in Paamiut begins at 02:22 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 Paamiut?

From Paamiut, the Qibla is 80.0° from true north — roughly E. 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 Paamiut?

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

Paamiut lies approximately 7890 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 Paamiut?

Day length in Paamiut ranges from about 5.1 hours at midwinter to 19.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 14.6 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
