Prayer times in Kalutara — common questions

What time is Fajr in Kalutara today?

Fajr in Kalutara begins at 04:52 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 Kalutara?

From Kalutara, the Qibla is 295.1° from true north — roughly WNW. 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 Kalutara?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Sri Lanka. 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 Kalutara from Makkah?

Kalutara lies approximately 4615 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 Kalutara?

Day length in Kalutara ranges from about 11.7 hours at midwinter to 12.5 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 0.8 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
