Why Fajr and Isha need an estimation rule here

At this latitude the sun does not sink a full 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so true night — and with it the astronomical basis for Fajr and Isha — does not occur for several weeks. We apply the Middle of the Night rule during that period, splitting the interval between sunset and sunrise. Your local mosque in Port-Cartier may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Port-Cartier — common questions

What time is Fajr in Port-Cartier today?

Fajr in Port-Cartier begins at 02:30 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 Port-Cartier?

From Port-Cartier, the Qibla is 63.8° 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 Port-Cartier?

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.

How far is Port-Cartier from Makkah?

Port-Cartier lies approximately 9317 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 Port-Cartier?

Day length in Port-Cartier ranges from about 8.1 hours at midwinter to 16.4 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 8.3 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
