Prayer times in Catania — common questions
What time is Fajr in Catania today?
Fajr in Catania begins at 04:24 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 Catania?
From Catania, 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 Catania?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Italy. 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 Catania?
Day length in Catania ranges from about 9.6 hours at midwinter to 14.8 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.2 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Catania from Makkah?
Catania lies approximately 2974 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.
