Prayer times in Butha-Buthe — common questions
What time is Fajr in Butha-Buthe today?
Fajr in Butha-Buthe begins at 05:27 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 Butha-Buthe?
From Butha-Buthe, the Qibla is 13.8° from true north — roughly NNE. 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 Butha-Buthe?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Lesotho. 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 Butha-Buthe from Makkah?
Butha-Buthe lies approximately 5717 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 Butha-Buthe?
Day length in Butha-Buthe ranges from about 10.3 hours at midwinter to 14 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 3.7 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
