Prayer times in Liwonde — common questions

What time is Fajr in Liwonde today?

Fajr in Liwonde begins at 04:47 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 Liwonde?

From Liwonde, the Qibla is 7.2° from true north — roughly N. 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 Liwonde?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Malawi. 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 Liwonde?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Liwonde'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 Liwonde from Makkah?

Liwonde lies approximately 4088 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.
