Prayer times in Oshakati — common questions

What time is Fajr in Oshakati today?

Fajr in Oshakati begins at 06:08 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 Oshakati?

From Oshakati, the Qibla is 32.1° from true north — roughly NNE. 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 Oshakati?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Namibia. 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 far is Oshakati from Makkah?

Oshakati lies approximately 5090 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.

How much does daylight change through the year in Oshakati?

Day length in Oshakati ranges from about 11.1 hours at midwinter to 13.2 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 2.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
