Prayer times in Taipei — common questions

What time is Fajr in Taipei today?

Fajr in Taipei begins at 03:59 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 Taipei?

From Taipei, the Qibla is 286.6° 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 Taipei?

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

Taipei lies approximately 8223 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 Taipei?

Day length in Taipei ranges from about 10.6 hours at midwinter to 13.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 3.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
