Prayer Times in Dyersburg, United States

Dyersburg prayer times explained

Few cities on this site sit further from the Kaaba than Dyersburg: some 11,689 kilometres. At that range the great-circle route matters: the qibla from here runs north-east, about 48°, which surprises people expecting otherwise.

A note on the method used

Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah is the standard applied to this page. The disagreement between methods lives almost entirely in Fajr and Isha, where the sun is below the horizon and the chosen angle decides the time. Asr here follows the Hanafi reckoning, which places it noticeably later in the afternoon than the other schools would. If the mosque down the road announces something a few minutes different, pray with the mosque.

Isha to Fajr

From Isha to Fajr is around 10 hours and 15 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.

Ramadan timings

Stop eating by 5:49 am; break the fast at 6:04 pm. That is about 12 hours and 15 minutes on today's times. Scroll to the month view to see how the length changes as Ramadan progresses.

Dyersburg today, prayer by prayer

The first call comes at 5:49 am, for Fajr. Sunrise at 7:18 am closes that window. Dhuhr 12:41 pm, Asr 4:25 pm — the two that carry the middle of the day. Maghrib is prayed at 6:04 pm as the light goes, then Isha at 7:34 pm. Sunrise to sunset, today runs about 10 hours and 46 minutes.

The clock against the sun

Solar noon in Dyersburg falls about 41 minutes after twelve o'clock. Hence Dhuhr at 12:41 pm, with the rest of the afternoon following along behind it. It is not an error — timezones are drawn for administrative convenience, not astronomical accuracy.

What changes between summer and winter

The yearly swing here is substantial. In June, Fajr in Dyersburg can fall in the small hours with Isha holding off until late evening; in December the whole day from Fajr to Isha is over in a short span. Check the monthly timetable rather than assuming last season's times still hold.
