Frequently asked questions
How will Ramadan fasts in Cincinnati compare with the longest fast of the year?
Expected from around 8 February to 8 March, Ramadan runs from 11h 44m to 12h 51m. The first fast is about an hour longer than the December low of 10h 45m, and the last is more than three and a half hours shorter than June's 16h 31m.
Does the November clock change affect Fajr in Cincinnati?
Only in how it reads. Fajr is latest, 6:55 AM, on 6 November, the last morning before the clocks go back on 7 November. They move forward again on 14 March, shortly after Ramadan is expected to end.
Which direction should I face for prayer in Cincinnati?
Toward 51 degrees clockwise from true north, slightly east of north-east. The shortest path to Makkah arcs across the North Atlantic, a very different heading from the south-east a flat map would imply.
Is Isha earliest on the shortest day in Cincinnati?
No. The low of 6:35 PM comes on 27 November, about three and a half weeks ahead of the winter solstice on 21 December, so Cincinnati evenings already begin lengthening before midwinter.
