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 Hérouville-Saint-Clair may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Hérouville-Saint-Clair — common questions

What time is Fajr in Hérouville-Saint-Clair today?

Fajr in Hérouville-Saint-Clair begins at 04:09 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 Hérouville-Saint-Clair?

From Hérouville-Saint-Clair, the Qibla is 116.6° 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 Hérouville-Saint-Clair?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across France. 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 Hérouville-Saint-Clair?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Hérouville-Saint-Clair'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 Hérouville-Saint-Clair change much between seasons?

Considerably. With a 8-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Hérouville-Saint-Clair, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
