Prayer times in Saint-Genis-Laval — common questions

What time is Fajr in Saint-Genis-Laval today?

Fajr in Saint-Genis-Laval begins at 04:19 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 Saint-Genis-Laval?

From Saint-Genis-Laval, the Qibla is 118.5° 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 Saint-Genis-Laval?

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.

How much does daylight change through the year in Saint-Genis-Laval?

Day length in Saint-Genis-Laval ranges from about 8.7 hours at midwinter to 15.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 7 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

Are these times accurate for a place the size of Saint-Genis-Laval?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Saint-Genis-Laval'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.
