Frequently asked questions
Do prayer times in Bankstown change when daylight saving starts?
Yes. Clocks go forward on 3 October and back on 4 April, and the times here are local clock time, so Fajr and Isha move by about an hour on those dates. Ramadan, expected 8 February to 8 March, falls entirely within daylight saving.
Why is Bankstown's earliest Fajr on 11 December?
Fajr is at 3:54 AM on 11 December, nine days before the longest fast on 20 December. A fast ends at Maghrib, so the longest day and the earliest Fajr need not coincide.
When is Fajr latest in Bankstown?
On 3 April, at 5:46 AM, the day before the clocks go back. The change brings Fajr about an hour earlier on the clock the next morning.
How much does the fast vary through the year in Bankstown?
The longest is 16h 10m on 20 December and the shortest is 11h 23m on 19 June, a difference of nearly five hours. Ramadan in 2027 sits nearer the long end.
