Praying in Chesterfield
Fajr in Chesterfield can start at 2:37 AM on 18 June, three days before the solstice, while Isha is latest, 10:58 PM, on 21 June itself. Around midsummer only a few hours separate the night prayer from dawn, so the night between them is brief.
The longest fast, 19h 03m, falls on 19 June, two days before the solstice. At the other end the shortest, 9h 16m, comes on 23 December, a day after the winter solstice on 22 December, with Fajr still getting later that week and not peaking until 1 January.

How these times are calculated
- Method
- Moonsighting Committee Worldwide
- Fajr
- 18° with seasonal adjustment
- Isha
- seasonal twilight (shafaq)
- Highlighted Asr
- Hanafi (shadow twice the length)
UK times use the Moonsighting Committee Worldwide method. In summer, cities above 55 degrees north, including Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen, follow the one-seventh-of-the-night rule for Fajr and Isha because true twilight never ends there. Dhuhr is shown 5 minutes after solar noon and Maghrib 3 minutes after sunset, following the method's guidance.
Frequently asked questions
Do the clocks change in Chesterfield?
Yes. They go forward on 28 March and back on 31 October. The sun does not move, but every prayer is listed an hour later or earlier on the clock from that day.
Which direction is the Qibla in Chesterfield?
119 degrees clockwise from north, in the east-south-east sector. Makkah is to the south-east of Britain, so the bearing leans a little towards south-east from due east.
Is the shortest fast in Chesterfield on the shortest day?
No. It is 9h 16m on 23 December, the day after the winter solstice on 22 December. Fajr is still getting later in late December, so the span from Fajr to Maghrib keeps narrowing a little past the solstice.
When is Isha earliest in Chesterfield?
At 5:24 PM on 8 December, exactly two weeks before the winter solstice. It starts later each evening afterwards, so the earliest evenings for the night prayer come in the first part of December.
