Prayer Times in Villa Domínico, Argentina

About the times on this page

The gap between suhoor and iftar in Villa Domínico is wide just now. From 4:17 am to 7:22 pm is around 15 hours and 5 minutes; the month view further down tracks how it changes.

The calculation behind them

Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah is the standard applied to this page. Methods differ mainly over Fajr and Isha, because each authority settles on a slightly different angle of the sun below the horizon — a few minutes either way is normal. For Asr this page uses the Hanafi position — later in the day than the majority view. Where your local mosque differs, follow the mosque — that is the timetable the congregation keeps.

Clock time and solar time

True midday in Villa Domínico arrives some 37 minutes after what the clock reads. It explains the 12:37 pm Dhuhr — the timezone boundary is drawn some way from this city's own meridian. This catches people out regularly, but prayer follows the sun, and the clock is only the label we put on it.

Lining up with the Kaaba

From this city the direction is east-north-east, or 76° if you prefer the number. That puts the Kaaba roughly 12,059 km — 7,493 miles — from here.

The last third of the night

Between Isha at 8:52 pm and Fajr at 4:17 am there are about 7 hours and 25 minutes. For anyone praying tahajjud, the last third of that period is the part traditionally singled out — work back from Fajr rather than forward from Isha to find it.

The yearly swing

The seasons show here without dominating. Summer in Villa Domínico brings earlier Fajr times and a later Isha; winter pulls everything inward, and Maghrib can arrive while the afternoon still feels unfinished. Expect an hour or two of movement between the extremes.

How the day runs in Villa Domínico

Fajr opens the day at 4:17 am, well before first light. The window stays open until sunrise, 5:52 am. Midday brings Dhuhr at 12:37 pm; Asr comes round at 5:24 pm. The sun goes down at Maghrib, 7:22 pm, and the day ends with Isha at 8:52 pm. That gives Villa Domínico roughly 13 hours and 30 minutes of daylight today.
