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 prayer times in Lincoln jump when the clocks change?
The sun moves by only a minute or two a day, but the timetable is in local time. From 28 March each prayer reads an hour later than the day before, and from 31 October an hour earlier. Nothing about the prayers has changed; the clock has.
How much longer is the longest fast than the shortest in Lincoln?
The longest, 19h 04m, is on 22 June and the shortest, 9h 17m, on 17 December, five days before the winter solstice. The difference is more than nine and a half hours.
How short is the night between Isha and Fajr in Lincoln in summer?
Around the June solstice, Isha begins at 10:54 PM on 21 June, and the earliest Fajr of the year is 2:33 AM on 20 June. That leaves a little over three and a half hours of night, when the sky never fully darkens.
Why is Isha earliest well before the winter solstice in Lincoln?
The earliest Isha, 5:21 PM, is on 6 December, more than two weeks before the solstice on 22 December. Sunsets stop getting earlier a little before the solstice, while sunrises keep getting later into January, which is why Fajr is latest on 1 January.
