Prayer Times in Wujie, Taiwan

Praying in Wujie

Today runs to roughly 11 hours and 15 minutes of daylight in Wujie, from sunrise at 5:59 am to sunset at 5:14 pm. None of the five are fixed to the clock — they follow the sun, and the sun keeps different hours in every month.

How the day runs in Wujie

Fajr is at 4:40 am — early, and in darkness. The window stays open until sunrise, 5:59 am. Dhuhr follows at 11:36 am once the sun has tipped past its highest point, and Asr at 3:38 pm. Maghrib comes with sunset at 5:14 pm, and Isha closes the day at 6:44 pm. Around 11 hours and 15 minutes of daylight, all told.

The yearly swing

The seasons show here without dominating. Summer in Wujie 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.

Isha to Fajr

From Isha to Fajr is around 9 hours and 56 minutes at the moment. The final third of the night carries particular weight in the tradition, and it is measured from Isha to Fajr rather than by the clock.

Finding the qibla

The qibla from here runs west-north-west, a bearing of about 287°. Makkah is around 8,259 kilometres (5,132 miles) away in a straight line.

The fasting day in Wujie

The fasting day here runs 4:40 am to 5:14 pm: suhoor closes at the first, iftar comes at the second. Today it works out to some 12 hours and 34 minutes. Scroll to the month view to see how the length changes as Ramadan progresses.

A note on the method used

The calculation used here is Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Where two calculations disagree it is nearly always Fajr or Isha: those depend on twilight, and twilight is a judgement call. For Asr this page uses the Hanafi position — later in the day than the majority view. Local practice wins over any website, this one included.
