Frequently asked questions
Which direction is the Qibla in Columbus?
It is 52 degrees clockwise from true north, a little east of north-east. The shortest route over the globe heads out across the North Atlantic, so it is far from the south-easterly direction a flat map makes it look.
Is Columbus's shortest fast on the winter solstice?
No. It is 10h 41m on 17 December, four days before the solstice. Isha's low, 6:27 PM on 1 December, arrives earlier still, so the winter solstice and the two lows fall on three different dates.
Is Isha latest on the summer solstice in Columbus?
One day before it. Isha peaks at 10:42 PM on 20 June, with the solstice on 21 June. The longest fast comes earlier, on 19 June, because Fajr is already creeping later by then.
How much does Fajr change across the year in Columbus?
From 4:25 AM on 14 June to 6:50 AM on 6 November, about two and a half hours. The autumn figure is the last morning before the clocks go back, which is why it sits so late.
