Prayer times in Messica — common questions

What time is Fajr in Messica today?

Fajr in Messica begins at 04:59 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 Messica?

From Messica, the Qibla is 9.6° 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 Messica?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Mozambique. 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 Messica?

Day length in Messica ranges from about 11 hours at midwinter to 13.3 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 2.3 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 Messica?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Messica'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.
