Prayer times in Sāqayn — common questions

What time is Fajr in Sāqayn today?

Fajr in Sāqayn begins at 04:30 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 Sāqayn?

From Sāqayn, the Qibla is 323.0° from true north — roughly NW. 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 Sāqayn?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Yemen. 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 Sāqayn?

Day length in Sāqayn ranges from about 11.1 hours at midwinter to 13.1 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 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 Sāqayn?

Yes. Prayer times are computed from Sāqayn'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.
