Prayer times in Otara — common questions

What time is Fajr in Otara today?

Fajr in Otara begins at 05:47 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 Otara?

From Otara, the Qibla is 261.0° from true north — roughly W. 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 Otara?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across New Zealand. 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 Otara?

Day length in Otara ranges from about 9.6 hours at midwinter to 14.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.1 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 Otara?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Otara'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.
