Prayer times in Jerusalem — common questions

What time is Fajr in Jerusalem today?

Fajr in Jerusalem begins at 04:25 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 Jerusalem?

From Jerusalem, the Qibla is 157.2° from true north — roughly SSE. 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 Jerusalem?

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

Jerusalem lies approximately 1238 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 Jerusalem?

Day length in Jerusalem ranges from about 10.1 hours at midwinter to 14.2 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 4.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
