Prayer times in Farasān — common questions

What time is Fajr in Farasān today?

Fajr in Farasān begins at 04:36 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 Farasān?

From Farasān, the Qibla is 335.7° from true north — roughly NNW. 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 Farasān?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Saudi Arabia. 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.

Are these times accurate for a place the size of Farasān?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Farasān'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.

How far is Farasān from Makkah?

Farasān lies approximately 577 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.
