Prayer Times in Moorpark, United States

Moorpark prayer times explained

Between the last prayer of one day and the first of the next, Moorpark gets roughly 10 hours and 11 minutes of darkness. That span is what the last third of the night is measured against, so it shifts along with the rest of the timetable through the year.

Lining up with the Kaaba

Face north-north-east — roughly 23° on a compass — and you are pointed at the Kaaba. The distance works out to about 13,424 kilometres, or 8,341 miles.

Method and madhab

Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah is the standard applied to this page. Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib are largely settled across methods; Fajr and Isha are where authorities part company. Asr is Hanafi on this page, so expect it later than a Shafi timetable would show. A small gap between this page and your nearest masjid is nothing to worry about; go with theirs.

Fasting hours

Suhoor ends at Fajr — 5:46 am today — and the fast breaks at Maghrib, 6:05 pm. Around 12 hours and 19 minutes without food or water today. Scroll to the month view to see how the length changes as Ramadan progresses.

The clock against the sun

True midday in Moorpark arrives some 39 minutes after what the clock reads. Hence Dhuhr at 12:39 pm, with the rest of the afternoon following along behind it. Nothing is wrong with the calculation; timezones are political lines, and the sun does not consult them.

Season by season in Moorpark

Moorpark sits far enough from the equator for the difference to be felt. Midsummer stretches the day, midwinter compresses it, and the prayer times follow.

The shape of the day

Everything begins with Fajr, 5:46 am today. Sunrise at 7:13 am closes that window. Midday brings Dhuhr at 12:39 pm; Asr comes round at 4:27 pm. Sunset brings Maghrib at 6:05 pm; Isha is the last, at 7:35 pm. That is some 10 hours and 52 minutes between the sun coming up and going down.

Isha to Fajr

From Isha to Fajr is around 10 hours and 11 minutes at the moment. 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.
