Prayer times in Columbus — common questions

What time is Fajr in Columbus today?

Fajr in Columbus begins at 04:45 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 Columbus?

From Columbus, the Qibla is 52.3° from true north — roughly NE. 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 Columbus?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across United States. 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 Columbus from Makkah?

Columbus lies approximately 10981 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 Columbus?

Day length in Columbus ranges from about 9.3 hours at midwinter to 15 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 5.7 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
