Prayer times in Karakenja — common questions

What time is Fajr in Karakenja today?

Fajr in Karakenja begins at 03:31 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 Karakenja?

From Karakenja, the Qibla is 246.0° from true north — roughly WSW. 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 Karakenja?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Tajikistan. 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 Karakenja?

Day length in Karakenja ranges from about 9.4 hours at midwinter to 14.9 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.5 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 Karakenja?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Karakenja'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.
