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