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

Prayer times in Reykjavík — common questions

What time is Fajr in Reykjavík today?

Fajr in Reykjavík 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 Reykjavík?

From Reykjavík, the Qibla is 106.2° 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 Reykjavík?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Iceland. 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 Reykjavík from Makkah?

Reykjavík lies approximately 6516 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 Reykjavík?

Day length in Reykjavík ranges from about 4.1 hours at midwinter to 21.1 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 17 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
