Prayer times in Zacatecas — common questions
What time is Fajr in Zacatecas today?
Fajr in Zacatecas begins at 05:02 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 Zacatecas?
From Zacatecas, the Qibla is 42.4° from true north — roughly NE. 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 Zacatecas?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Mexico. 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 much does daylight change through the year in Zacatecas?
Day length in Zacatecas ranges from about 10.7 hours at midwinter to 13.5 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 2.8 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Zacatecas from Makkah?
Zacatecas lies approximately 13633 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.
