Frequently asked questions

Do Austin's clocks change in 2027?

Yes, forward on 14 March and back on 7 November. Fajr is latest, 6:41 AM, on 5 November, two days before the change, and from 7 November the same prayer reads an hour earlier on the clock.

How do Ramadan fasts in Austin compare with winter and summer?

Expected from around 8 February, Ramadan opens with a fast of 12h 04m, forty-two minutes more than December's 11h 22m. It ends around 8 March at 12h 51m, which is about two and a half hours shorter than the 15h 25m of mid-June.

Which direction is the Qibla in Austin?

The bearing is 44 degrees clockwise from true north, so the Qibla runs almost exactly north-east. Makkah looks south-east on a flat map, but the shortest great-circle route from central Texas heads out over the Atlantic.

When does Isha start earliest in Austin?

At 6:40 PM on 27 November, twenty-four days before the winter solstice. Because the earliest sunsets come ahead of the shortest day, Isha has been getting later for more than three weeks by the time the solstice arrives.
