Prayer times in Kogŏnwon — common questions
What time is Fajr in Kogŏnwon today?
Fajr in Kogŏnwon begins at 03:18 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 Kogŏnwon?
From Kogŏnwon, the Qibla is 286.3° from true north — roughly WNW. 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 Kogŏnwon?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across North Korea. 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.
Do prayer times in Kogŏnwon change much between seasons?
Considerably. With a 6.3-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Kogŏnwon, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
How far is Kogŏnwon from Makkah?
Kogŏnwon lies approximately 8444 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.
