Prayer times in Alba Iulia — common questions
What time is Fajr in Alba Iulia today?
Fajr in Alba Iulia begins at 04:03 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 Alba Iulia?
From Alba Iulia, the Qibla is 146.3° 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 Alba Iulia?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Romania. 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 Alba Iulia?
Day length in Alba Iulia ranges from about 8.6 hours at midwinter to 15.8 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 7.2 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
Do prayer times in Alba Iulia change much between seasons?
Considerably. With a 7.2-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Alba Iulia, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
