Prayer Times in Astley, United Kingdom

Praying in Astley

Today runs to roughly 9 hours and 32 minutes of daylight in Astley, from sunrise at 7:07 am to sunset at 4:39 pm. Prayer times are anchored to the sun rather than the clock, so as that figure grows and shrinks across the year, every time below moves with it.

Season by season in Astley

There is a caveat to the summer timetable in Astley. For several weeks around the solstice the sun does not dip deep enough for a true Fajr or Isha, and the calculated values become estimates. Local scholarly guidance takes over in that period.

Finding the qibla

From this city the direction is east-south-east, or 118° if you prefer the number. Makkah is around 5,038 kilometres (3,130 miles) away in a straight line.

The calculation behind them

Calculations come from Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. 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. Asr is Hanafi on this page, so expect it later than a Shafi timetable would show. Where your local mosque differs, follow the mosque — that is the timetable the congregation keeps.

Isha to Fajr

From Isha to Fajr is around 10 hours and 56 minutes at the moment. 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.

Suhoor and iftar in Astley

Suhoor closes at 5:05 am in Astley, with iftar at 4:39 pm. Roughly 11 hours and 34 minutes, going by today's figures. Scroll to the month view to see how the length changes as Ramadan progresses.

How the day runs in Astley

Fajr opens the day at 5:05 am, well before first light. The window stays open until sunrise, 7:07 am. Dhuhr follows at 11:53 am once the sun has tipped past its highest point, and Asr at 2:49 pm. The sun goes down at Maghrib, 4:39 pm, and the day ends with Isha at 6:09 pm. That gives Astley roughly 9 hours and 32 minutes of daylight today.
