Frequently asked questions

Which Asr time does Wellington highlight?

Wellington highlights the Standard Asr, which begins earlier than the Hanafi time. Both are in the timetable, and a switch above it changes the highlight. Which opinion you follow is for you or your community to decide.

Which way is the Qibla from Wellington?

256 degrees, measured clockwise from true north, between west-south-west and west. Use the true-north setting on your compass app if it has one, since magnetic north differs.

Why are Wellington's longest days in December?

Wellington is in the southern hemisphere, so the December solstice is midsummer. The sun is highest and days are longest then, and the longest fast, 17h 19m, is on 20 December. In June it falls to 10h 51m.

How much does Fajr move through the year in Wellington?

From 3:33 AM on 15 December to 6:08 AM on 24 June, about two and a half hours. The earliest Fajr comes five days before the longest fast.
