Prayer times in al-Kum — common questions
What time is Fajr in al-Kum today?
Fajr in al-Kum begins at 04:27 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 al-Kum?
From al-Kum, the Qibla is 155.6° from true north — roughly SSE. 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 al-Kum?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Palestinian Territory. 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 al-Kum?
Day length in al-Kum ranges from about 10.1 hours at midwinter to 14.2 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 4.1 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 al-Kum?
Yes. Prayer times are computed from al-Kum'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.
