Prayer times in Kastamonu — common questions

What time is Fajr in Kastamonu today?

Fajr in Kastamonu begins at 03:50 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 Kastamonu?

From Kastamonu, the Qibla is 163.8° from true north — roughly SSE. 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 Kastamonu?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Turkey. 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 Kastamonu change much between seasons?

Considerably. With a 6-hour difference between the longest and shortest day, Fajr and Isha shift substantially across the year in Kastamonu, while Dhuhr — tied to solar noon — barely moves. Checking weekly rather than monthly is worthwhile.

How far is Kastamonu from Makkah?

Kastamonu lies approximately 2290 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.
