Prayer times in Kapiri Mposhi — common questions

What time is Fajr in Kapiri Mposhi today?

Fajr in Kapiri Mposhi begins at 05:12 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 Kapiri Mposhi?

From Kapiri Mposhi, the Qibla is 17.4° from true north — roughly NNE. 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 Kapiri Mposhi?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Zambia. 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 Kapiri Mposhi?

Day length in Kapiri Mposhi ranges from about 11.3 hours at midwinter to 13 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1.7 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

How far is Kapiri Mposhi from Makkah?

Kapiri Mposhi lies approximately 4120 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.
