Prayer times in Tafawa Balewa — common questions

What time is Fajr in Tafawa Balewa today?

Fajr in Tafawa Balewa begins at 04:58 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 Tafawa Balewa?

From Tafawa Balewa, the Qibla is 64.5° from true north — roughly ENE. 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 Tafawa Balewa?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Nigeria. 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 Tafawa Balewa?

Day length in Tafawa Balewa ranges from about 11.6 hours at midwinter to 12.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1.1 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
