Prayer times in Rafaḩ — common questions

What time is Fajr in Rafaḩ today?

Fajr in Rafaḩ begins at 04:31 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 Rafaḩ?

From Rafaḩ, the Qibla is 151.8° 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 Rafaḩ?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Palestinian Territory. 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 Rafaḩ from Makkah?

Rafaḩ lies approximately 1230 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 Rafaḩ?

Day length in Rafaḩ 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.
