Praying in St Helens
At 53.5 degrees north, St Helens has its latest Isha, 11:05 PM, on 22 June, the day after the solstice on 21 June. Fajr is earliest on the solstice itself, 2:40 AM on 21 June, so for a few weeks around it the night between the two prayers is short.
The fast follows the same curve. It is longest at 19h 07m on 21 June and shortest at 9h 14m on 19 December, a difference of nearly ten hours. Fajr is latest at 6:45 AM on 1 January, and Isha earliest, 5:29 PM, on 5 December, seventeen days before the winter solstice.

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
Which Asr time does St Helens highlight?
The Hanafi time, which comes later in the afternoon than the Standard one. UK pages on this site highlight it. Both are listed, and a toggle lets you switch. Your own mosque's timetable is the reference for congregation.
Which way is the Qibla from St Helens?
St Helens faces 118 degrees clockwise from true north, which points east-south-east. If your phone compass is on magnetic north, expect a small offset, so set it to true north.
How much earlier is Fajr in June than in January in St Helens?
Fajr is 2:40 AM on 21 June and 6:45 AM on 1 January, so it moves just over four hours earlier across the year. The long June twilight is why dawn comes so early.
Is the longest fast in St Helens on the longest day?
Yes. The longest fast, 19h 07m, is on 21 June, the day of the summer solstice. The shortest, 9h 14m, comes on 19 December, three days before the winter solstice on 22 December, because Fajr is still getting later then.
