Praying in Louisville
Fajr in Louisville reaches 7:00 AM on 6 November, the last morning before the clocks go back on 7 November. Louisville is toward the western side of the Eastern time zone, so the autumn sun comes up late on the clock, and the next day the same prayer is listed an hour earlier.

Frequently asked questions
Which Asr time is highlighted for Louisville?
Standard Asr is the one marked. Hanafi Asr, which uses a longer shadow, comes later and can be chosen with the switch on the page. Use whichever your school follows, and your Louisville masjid's schedule for congregation.
Which way is the Qibla from Louisville?
The Qibla is 51 degrees clockwise from true north, a little east of north-east. Makkah is south and far east of Kentucky, yet the direction is north-east, because a straight line across a globe does not match a straight line on a flat map.
When does Isha start earliest in Louisville?
At 6:41 PM on 28 November, twenty-three days before the winter solstice on 21 December. It then moves slowly later again, although the shortest fast of the year does not come until 17 December.
Are Louisville's longest and shortest fasts on the solstices?
No. The longest, 16h 23m, is on 17 June, and the shortest, 10h 49m, is on 17 December. Each comes four days before its solstice, which are 21 June and 21 December.
