Prayer times in Biel/Bienne — common questions
What time is Fajr in Biel/Bienne today?
Fajr in Biel/Bienne begins at 04:01 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 Biel/Bienne?
From Biel/Bienne, the Qibla is 123.1° from true north — roughly ESE. 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 Biel/Bienne?
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.
Do prayer times in Biel/Bienne change much between seasons?
Considerably. With a 7.4-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Biel/Bienne, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.
How far is Biel/Bienne from Makkah?
Biel/Bienne lies approximately 4086 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.
