Prayer times in Port Elizabeth — common questions

What time is Fajr in Port Elizabeth today?

Fajr in Port Elizabeth begins at 04:36 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 Port Elizabeth?

From Port Elizabeth, the Qibla is 66.6° from true north — roughly ENE. 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 Port Elizabeth?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. 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 Port Elizabeth?

Day length in Port Elizabeth ranges from about 11.4 hours at midwinter to 12.9 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1.5 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 Port Elizabeth?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Port Elizabeth'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.
