Prayer times in Santa Cruz das Flores — common questions

What time is Fajr in Santa Cruz das Flores today?

Fajr in Santa Cruz das Flores begins at 05:22 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 Santa Cruz das Flores?

From Santa Cruz das Flores, the Qibla is 84.2° from true north — roughly E. 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 Santa Cruz das Flores?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Portugal. 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 Santa Cruz das Flores?

Day length in Santa Cruz das Flores ranges from about 9.4 hours at midwinter to 15 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.6 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

Are these times accurate for a place the size of Santa Cruz das Flores?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Santa Cruz das Flores's own coordinates, not borrowed from a larger neighbouring city, so the astronomy is exactly as accurate as it is for a capital. The only caveat is that we use a single reference point for the settlement.
