Prayer times in Oxford — common questions

What time is Fajr in Oxford today?

Fajr in Oxford begins at 06:02 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 Oxford?

From Oxford, the Qibla is 256.6° 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 Oxford?

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 Oxford from Makkah?

Oxford lies approximately 15010 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 Oxford?

Day length in Oxford ranges from about 9 hours at midwinter to 15.4 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 6.4 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
