Frequently asked questions
What changes across Ramadan in Richmond Hill?
The fast lengthens each day, from 11h 32m around 8 February to 12h 51m around 8 March, roughly an hour and twenty minutes in all. That follows the days getting longer after midwinter. Eid depends on the local moon announcement.
When do the clocks go back in Richmond Hill, and what happens to Isha?
Ontario sets clocks back on 7 November and forward on 14 March. After the November change every prayer shows an hour earlier on the clock, and Isha keeps edging earlier until its yearly low of 6:06 PM on 6 December.
Which way is the Qibla in Richmond Hill?
The bearing is 55 degrees clockwise from true north, a little past north-east. From Ontario the great-circle route to Makkah crosses the North Atlantic before turning south-east over Europe and the Mediterranean.
Why is Isha earliest before the winter solstice in Richmond Hill?
Its low point, 6:06 PM on 6 December, comes fifteen days ahead of the solstice. Sunsets reach their earliest before the solstice and sunrises their latest after it, so evening and morning times do not turn around together.
