Frequently asked questions

Can I use Hanafi Asr for Surprise?

Yes. Hanafi Asr falls later in the afternoon than Standard Asr, which is highlighted here. Use the switch on the page to change it. Your mosque may publish either time, so follow the one it uses.

Does Surprise change its clocks in March or November?

No. Surprise stays on one clock all year, so there is nothing to reset in spring or autumn and no repeated hour in the timetable. Prayer times change only by the sun's slow drift from day to day.

Which way is the Qibla from Surprise?

30 degrees clockwise from true north. Set your compass to true north and turn about a third of the way toward east to find it. The page's compass shows the same line.

When is Fajr latest in Surprise?

At 6:21 AM on 3 January, thirteen days after the December solstice on 21 December. Arizona never changes its clocks, so the date follows the sun alone, and Fajr is earliest at 3:55 AM on 10 June.
