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 Qaanaaq may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Qaanaaq — common questions

What time is Fajr in Qaanaaq today?

Fajr in Qaanaaq begins at Invalid Date 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 Qaanaaq?

From Qaanaaq, the Qibla is 66.9° 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 Qaanaaq?

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 Qaanaaq from Makkah?

Qaanaaq lies approximately 8129 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 Qaanaaq?

Day length in Qaanaaq ranges from about 0 hours at midwinter to 24 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 24 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
