Prayer times in T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp — common questions

What time is Fajr in T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp today?

Fajr in T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp begins at 03:47 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 T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp?

From T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp, the Qibla is 285.9° 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 T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp?

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 T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp?

Day length in T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp ranges from about 9.4 hours at midwinter to 14.9 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.5 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 T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from T’ongch’ŏn-ŭp'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.
