What time is Fajr in Santa Maria Maior today?

Fajr in Santa Maria Maior begins at 05:52 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 Maria Maior?

Which calculation method is used for Santa Maria Maior?

How far is Santa Maria Maior from Makkah?
