Praying in Townsville

Townsville is at 19.3 degrees south, inside the tropics, so its fasts span a narrow range: 12h 16m on 15 June to 14h 41m on 14 December, about two and a half hours. A fast here never reaches fifteen hours and never falls below twelve, whatever the season.

Fajr runs from 4:04 AM on 25 November to 5:29 AM on 29 June. Queensland does not change its clocks, so those figures drift gradually all year. Isha stays between 6:55 PM on 24 May and 8:14 PM on 9 January.

Frequently asked questions

Which Asr time does Townsville use?

The page highlights Standard Asr: the time when an object's shadow equals its height plus the shadow at noon. Hanafi Asr comes later, at twice the height. Choose either with the switch above the timetable, and follow the practice of your own mosque for congregation.

Do the clocks change in Townsville?

No. Queensland stays on the same clock time all year, so Townsville's Fajr and Isha do not jump. Fajr moves only with the sun, from 4:04 AM on 25 November to 5:29 AM on 29 June, a few minutes at a time.

Which way is the Qibla from Townsville?

The bearing is 286 degrees clockwise from true north, sixteen degrees north of due west. Facing west and turning right until you are sixteen degrees off west gives the direction.

Why does Isha hardly move in Townsville?

It ranges only from 6:55 PM on 24 May to 8:14 PM on 9 January, less than one and a half hours. Closer to the equator the sun sets more steeply, so twilight is shorter and Isha follows sunset more closely.
