Prayer times in West Somerville/Davis Square — common questions

What time is Fajr in West Somerville/Davis Square today?

Fajr in West Somerville/Davis Square begins at 03:46 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 West Somerville/Davis Square?

From West Somerville/Davis Square, the Qibla is 60.4° from true north — roughly ENE. 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 West Somerville/Davis Square?

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 West Somerville/Davis Square?

Day length in West Somerville/Davis Square ranges from about 9.1 hours at midwinter to 15.3 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 6.2 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 West Somerville/Davis Square?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from West Somerville/Davis Square'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.
