Prayer times in Independence — common questions
What time is Fajr in Independence today?
Fajr in Independence begins at 04:35 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 Independence?
From Independence, the Qibla is 43.9° 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 Independence?
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 Independence from Makkah?
Independence lies approximately 11774 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 Independence?
Day length in Independence 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.
