Prayer times in Sūknah — common questions
What time is Fajr in Sūknah today?
Fajr in Sūknah begins at 04:52 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 Sūknah?
From Sūknah, the Qibla is 103.9° 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 Sūknah?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Libya. 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 Sūknah?
Yes. Prayer times are computed from Sūknah'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.
How far is Sūknah from Makkah?
Sūknah lies approximately 2557 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.
