Praying in Queens

Queens has its latest Fajr of the year, 6:14 AM, on 6 November. That is a clock effect more than a sky effect: daylight saving time ends the next day, 7 November, and until then every prayer is listed an hour later than standard time would show it. After the change Fajr drops back on the clock, then drifts later again toward midwinter.

June brings Fajr as early as 3:44 AM, on 14 June, and a fast of 16h 46m on 20 June. Isha is earliest at 5:49 PM on 3 December, eighteen days before the winter solstice.

Frequently asked questions

Which direction is the Qibla in Queens?

Face 59 degrees clockwise from true north, a little east of north-east. The shortest path from New York to Makkah arcs over the North Atlantic, so the bearing is nowhere near the south-east that a flat map suggests.

Which Asr time is highlighted for Queens?

Standard Asr, the earlier of the two afternoon times. Hanafi Asr starts later, and the switch on the page lets you highlight it instead. Which one suits you depends on your own school and on what your mosque announces.

How many mosques are near Queens?

OpenStreetMap lists 75 mosques within 15 km of the city centre. Volunteers edit that map, so treat it as a guide rather than a full count, and rely on each mosque's own timetable for congregation times.

When is Isha latest in Queens?

At 10:10 PM on 20 June, a day before the summer solstice on 21 June. The longest fast, 16h 46m, falls on the same date, so the latest night prayer and the longest fasting day arrive together.
