Why Fajr and Isha need an estimation rule here

At this latitude the sun does not sink a full 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so true night — and with it the astronomical basis for Fajr and Isha — does not occur for several weeks. We apply the Middle of the Night rule during that period, splitting the interval between sunset and sunrise. Your local mosque in Karlskrona may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Karlskrona — common questions

What time is Fajr in Karlskrona today?

Fajr in Karlskrona begins at 01:02 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 Karlskrona?

From Karlskrona, the Qibla is 142.7° from true north — roughly SE. 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 Karlskrona?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Sweden. 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 Karlskrona from Makkah?

Karlskrona lies approximately 4348 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 Karlskrona?

Day length in Karlskrona ranges from about 6.9 hours at midwinter to 17.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 10.8 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
