Prayer times in Paek'ak — common questions

What time is Fajr in Paek'ak today?

Fajr in Paek'ak begins at 03:55 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 Paek'ak?

From Paek'ak, the Qibla is 284.4° 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 Paek'ak?

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.

How much does daylight change through the year in Paek'ak?

Day length in Paek'ak ranges from about 9.4 hours at midwinter to 15 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.6 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

How far is Paek'ak from Makkah?

Paek'ak lies approximately 8166 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.
