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
Why is my Bolton prayer alarm an hour out after the clocks change?
The clocks go forward on 28 March and back on 31 October. The sun's schedule is unchanged, but every prayer is shown an hour later or earlier on the clock from that day. Reset any saved alarm that weekend.
Is the Qibla from Bolton nearer east or south-east?
Nearer south-east. The bearing is 118 degrees clockwise from true north, which sits in the east-south-east sector but leans towards south-east. Treat it as a direction from the spot where you pray rather than a precise line on a map.
How short does the fast get in Bolton?
The shortest is 9h 13m on 18 December, four days before the winter solstice on 22 December. Fajr keeps getting later after that, which holds the winter fast near its minimum.
When is Isha earliest in Bolton?
At 5:27 PM on 5 December, more than two weeks before the winter solstice. Fajr, by contrast, keeps getting later until the last day of December.
