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 Skúvoy may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Skúvoy — common questions

What time is Fajr in Skúvoy today?

Fajr in Skúvoy begins at 01:31 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 Skúvoy?

From Skúvoy, the Qibla is 120.0° from true north — roughly ESE. 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 Skúvoy?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Faroe Islands. 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.

Do prayer times in Skúvoy change much between seasons?

Considerably. With a 14.4-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Skúvoy, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.

How far is Skúvoy from Makkah?

Skúvoy lies approximately 5713 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.
