Prayer times in Opelika — common questions
What time is Fajr in Opelika today?
Fajr in Opelika begins at 04:25 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 Opelika?
From Opelika, the Qibla is 51.9° 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 Opelika?
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 much does daylight change through the year in Opelika?
Day length in Opelika ranges from about 10 hours at midwinter to 14.3 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 4.3 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 Opelika?
Yes. Prayer times are computed from Opelika'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.
