Prayer times in Metu — common questions
What time is Fajr in Metu today?
Fajr in Metu begins at 05:16 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 Metu?
From Metu, the Qibla is 16.8° 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 Metu?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Ethiopia. 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 Metu?
Day length in Metu ranges from about 11.6 hours at midwinter to 12.6 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Metu from Makkah?
Metu lies approximately 1528 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.
