UK times use the Moonsighting Committee Worldwide method. In summer, cities above 55 degrees north, including Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen, follow the one-seventh-of-the-night rule for Fajr and Isha because true twilight never ends there. Dhuhr is shown 5 minutes after solar noon and Maghrib 3 minutes after sunset, following the method's guidance.

Frequently asked questions

How much longer does the fast get during Ramadan in Belfast in 2027?

Ramadan is expected around 8 February to 8 March. The first fast is about 10h 57m and the last about 12h 55m, a gain of just under two hours as the days lengthen. The first is already within two hours of the winter minimum of 9h 01m.

Which direction is the Qibla in Belfast?

115 degrees clockwise from true north, close to east-south-east. Face that bearing, and if your phone compass has a true-north setting, switch it on, because magnetic north is a different direction.

How early does Isha get in Belfast in winter?

The earliest Isha is 5:35 PM on 8 December, two weeks before the winter solstice on 22 December. The earliest sunsets come before the solstice, so Isha has already started to move later by the shortest day.

How much night is there between Isha and Fajr in Belfast in June?

Just over three hours around midsummer. Isha is at 11:25 PM on 21 June, and the earliest Fajr of the year, 2:45 AM, is on 18 June.
