Prayer times in Xai-Xai — common questions

What time is Fajr in Xai-Xai today?

Fajr in Xai-Xai begins at 05:03 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 Xai-Xai?

From Xai-Xai, the Qibla is 7.9° 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 Xai-Xai?

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 Xai-Xai?

Day length in Xai-Xai ranges from about 10.6 hours at midwinter to 13.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 3.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

How far is Xai-Xai from Makkah?

Xai-Xai lies approximately 5211 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.
