Prayer times in Affoltern / Oberdorf — common questions

What time is Fajr in Affoltern / Oberdorf today?

Fajr in Affoltern / Oberdorf begins at 03:55 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 Affoltern / Oberdorf?

From Affoltern / Oberdorf, the Qibla is 124.7° from true north — roughly SE. 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 Affoltern / Oberdorf?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Switzerland. 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 Affoltern / Oberdorf?

Day length in Affoltern / Oberdorf ranges from about 8.5 hours at midwinter to 15.9 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 7.4 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 Affoltern / Oberdorf?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Affoltern / Oberdorf'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.
