Prayer times in Murchison — common questions

What time is Fajr in Murchison today?

Fajr in Murchison begins at 06:00 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 Murchison?

From Murchison, the Qibla is 257.9° from true north — roughly WSW. 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 Murchison?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across New Zealand. 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 Murchison from Makkah?

Murchison lies approximately 15059 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 Murchison?

Day length in Murchison ranges from about 9.1 hours at midwinter to 15.2 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 6.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
