Prayer times in Ma‘ale Mikhmas — common questions

What time is Fajr in Ma‘ale Mikhmas today?

Fajr in Ma‘ale Mikhmas begins at 04:25 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 Ma‘ale Mikhmas?

From Ma‘ale Mikhmas, the Qibla is 157.8° 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 Ma‘ale Mikhmas?

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 Ma‘ale Mikhmas?

Day length in Ma‘ale Mikhmas 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 Ma‘ale Mikhmas?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Ma‘ale Mikhmas'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.
