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 Halifax?
They go forward on 28 March and back on 31 October. The timetable is in local time, so prayers read an hour later after 28 March and an hour earlier after 31 October. The latest Fajr, 6:43 AM on 1 January, falls in the winter months on GMT.
How many mosques are near Halifax?
OpenStreetMap lists 192 mosques within 15 km of the city centre. It is volunteer-edited, so treat the count as a guide. The closest mosques are shown on this page with their distance, and their own timetables set the congregation times.
Why is Isha so late in Halifax in summer?
UK pages use the Moonsighting Committee Worldwide convention, which takes account of the season. At this latitude the sun sinks only shallowly below the horizon in June, so the twilight that marks Isha lingers until 11:03 PM on 22 June.
When is Isha earliest in Halifax?
At 5:24 PM on 5 December, more than two weeks before the winter solstice on 22 December. In June it moves to 11:03 PM, a swing of more than five and a half hours.
