Why Fajr and Isha need an estimation rule here

At this latitude the sun does not sink a full 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so true night — and with it the astronomical basis for Fajr and Isha — does not occur for several weeks. We apply the Middle of the Night rule during that period, splitting the interval between sunset and sunrise. Your local mosque in Lochgelly may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Lochgelly — common questions

What time is Fajr in Lochgelly today?

Fajr in Lochgelly begins at 01:18 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 Lochgelly?

From Lochgelly, the Qibla is 119.5° 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 Lochgelly?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across United Kingdom. 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 far is Lochgelly from Makkah?

Lochgelly lies approximately 5227 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.

How much does daylight change through the year in Lochgelly?

Day length in Lochgelly ranges from about 6.9 hours at midwinter to 17.7 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 10.8 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
