Prayer Times in Nedre Eiker, Norway

Prayer times in Nedre Eiker

These are Nedre Eiker's own prayer times, not a regional approximation — they come from the coordinates 59.76° N, 10.03° E. Sunrise and sunset shift by a few minutes between neighbouring towns, and the prayer times move with them.

Lining up with the Kaaba

Face south-east — roughly 138° on a compass — and you are pointed at the Kaaba. The distance works out to about 4,865 kilometres, or 3,023 miles. Compass apps usually read magnetic north rather than true north, so allow a few degrees of local declination if you are setting a prayer mat precisely.

If you are travelling

4 other cities in Norway are listed on this site, each with its own calculated timetable. It is worth switching to the right one when you travel — a few hundred kilometres east or west moves Fajr and Maghrib by a noticeable margin.

Today's timetable

Everything begins with Fajr, 5:11 am today. The window stays open until sunrise, 7:36 am. Dhuhr follows at 12:04 pm once the sun has tipped past its highest point, and Asr at 2:34 pm. Sunset brings Maghrib at 4:30 pm; Isha is the last, at 6:00 pm. That is some 8 hours and 54 minutes between the sun coming up and going down.

Through the year

Nedre Eiker is far enough north that calculated Fajr and Isha times become unreliable around midsummer, when twilight lasts all night. Most communities this far up adopt a local ruling for those weeks; ask at your mosque. Outside that stretch, the ordinary calculation applies.

Suhoor and iftar in Nedre Eiker

Suhoor ends at Fajr — 5:11 am today — and the fast breaks at Maghrib, 4:30 pm. Around 11 hours and 19 minutes without food or water today. Scroll to the month view to see how the length changes as Ramadan progresses.

For tahajjud

Nedre Eiker gets roughly 11 hours and 11 minutes of night between the last prayer and the first. If you pray tahajjud, the final third of that stretch is the one to aim for; counting backwards from Fajr is the easier way to locate it.

Method and madhab

Calculations come from Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib are largely settled across methods; Fajr and Isha are where authorities part company. Asr here follows the Hanafi reckoning, which places it noticeably later in the afternoon than the other schools would. A small gap between this page and your nearest masjid is nothing to worry about; go with theirs.
