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.

Which way is the Qibla in Oldham?
The Qibla is 119 degrees clockwise from true north, between east and south-east and closer to south-east. A phone compass is more reliable away from steel and electronics.
How many mosques are there near Oldham?
OpenStreetMap lists 85 mosques within 15 km of the city centre, and the nearest are shown by distance. It is volunteer data, so some prayer rooms may be missing. Ask each mosque for its congregation times.
