Prayer times in Qal‘ah-ye Kūf — common questions

What time is Fajr in Qal‘ah-ye Kūf today?

Fajr in Qal‘ah-ye Kūf begins at 03:11 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 Qal‘ah-ye Kūf?

From Qal‘ah-ye Kūf, the Qibla is 246.5° 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 Qal‘ah-ye Kūf?

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 far is Qal‘ah-ye Kūf from Makkah?

Qal‘ah-ye Kūf lies approximately 3464 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 Qal‘ah-ye Kūf?

Day length in Qal‘ah-ye Kūf ranges from about 9.5 hours at midwinter to 14.8 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.3 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
