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 Skogsby may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Skogsby — common questions

What time is Fajr in Skogsby today?

Fajr in Skogsby begins at 12:58 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 Skogsby?

From Skogsby, the Qibla is 144.3° 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 Skogsby?

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 much does daylight change through the year in Skogsby?

Day length in Skogsby ranges from about 6.8 hours at midwinter to 17.8 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 11 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

Why do Fajr and Isha times look unusual in Skogsby during summer?

Because Skogsby sits far enough north that the sun does not drop 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so astronomical night never arrives. When that happens we apply the Middle of the Night rule rather than leaving the times undefined.
