Prayer times in Bécancour — common questions
What time is Fajr in Bécancour today?
Fajr in Bécancour begins at 03:24 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 Bécancour?
From Bécancour, the Qibla is 59.5° from true north — roughly ENE. 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 Bécancour?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Canada. 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.
Are these times accurate for a place the size of Bécancour?
Yes. Prayer times are computed from Bécancour's own coordinates, not borrowed from a larger neighbouring city, so the astronomy is exactly as accurate as it is for a capital. The only caveat is that we use a single reference point for the settlement.
Do prayer times in Bécancour change much between seasons?
Considerably. With a 7.2-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Bécancour, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
