What time is Fajr in Riviersonderend today?

Fajr in Riviersonderend begins at 06:05 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 Riviersonderend?

Which calculation method is used for Riviersonderend?
