Prayer times in Chākarān — common questions
What time is Fajr in Chākarān today?
Fajr in Chākarān begins at 03:13 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 Chākarān?
From Chākarān, the Qibla is 248.9° from true north — roughly WSW. 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 Chākarān?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Afghanistan. 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 Chākarān?
Day length in Chākarān ranges from about 9.6 hours at midwinter to 14.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Chākarān from Makkah?
Chākarān lies approximately 3465 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.
