Praying in McAllen

McAllen's fast hardly changes shape through the year. The longest, 15h 01m on 15 June, is more than three hours longer than the shortest, 11h 38m on 17 December. Both fall ahead of their solstices, six days before in June and four before in December.

At 26.2 degrees north the sun climbs and sets on a steep path, which is why the year's range is narrow. Fajr varies by about an hour and a quarter between its earliest, 5:26 AM on 9 June, and its latest, 6:40 AM on 14 March, the morning daylight time begins.

Frequently asked questions

Which direction is the Qibla in McAllen?

The bearing is 44 degrees clockwise from true north, one degree short of due north-east. From the Rio Grande valley the shortest path to Makkah heads out across the Gulf coast states and over the Atlantic.

Why is Fajr latest on 14 March in McAllen?

Daylight time begins on 14 March, when the clocks go forward an hour. Fajr reads 6:40 AM that morning, an hour later than the day before by the dial, so the latest Fajr of the year is a result of the clock change.

When is Isha earliest in McAllen?

At 6:48 PM on 19 November, thirty-two days before the winter solstice. It then edges later through the shortest day and on into spring, with a one-hour step on 14 March when the clocks go forward.

When does McAllen's longest fast fall?

On 15 June, six days before the solstice on 21 June, at 15h 01m. Fajr and Maghrib both change slowly around midsummer, so the peak is a broad one rather than a single sharp day.
