Prayer times in Taura — common questions
What time is Fajr in Taura today?
Fajr in Taura begins at 04:55 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 Taura?
From Taura, the Qibla is 68.4° 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 Taura?
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 Taura?
Day length in Taura ranges from about 11.4 hours at midwinter to 12.8 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 1.4 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Taura from Makkah?
Taura lies approximately 3400 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.
