How these times are calculated
- Method
- Moonsighting Committee Worldwide
- Fajr
- 18° with seasonal adjustment
- Isha
- seasonal twilight (shafaq)
- Highlighted Asr
- Hanafi (shadow twice the length)
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
When do the clocks change in Blackburn, and what does it do to the timetable?
The clocks go forward on 28 March and back on 31 October. Each time, every prayer shifts by an hour on the clock overnight, although the sun has not moved. A saved alarm will be an hour out that weekend until you adjust it.
Which way do I face for the Qibla in Blackburn?
Face 118 degrees clockwise from north, which falls in the east-south-east sector, a touch closer to south-east than to east. Printed maps and compass roses work as well as an app, and avoid sensor errors near metal.
Why is Isha after eleven at night in Blackburn in June?
Isha begins when evening twilight ends. At 53.8 degrees north in midsummer the sun stays close to the northern horizon, so twilight lingers and the night prayer starts as late as 11:06 PM on 22 June.
How many mosques does the map show around Blackburn?
OpenStreetMap lists 30 mosques within 15 km of the city centre. It is volunteer-edited data, so the true number may be higher. Always check a mosque's own timetable for jamaat times.
When is Fajr latest in Blackburn?
At 6:46 AM on 1 January, which is more than four hours after the earliest Fajr, 2:37 AM on 20 June, so winter dawn prayers start well into the morning compared with midsummer.
