Praying in Lafayette
Lafayette's latest Fajr of the year, 6:18 AM, falls on 5 November, two days before the clocks go back. Because 6:18 AM is the peak, every winter morning that follows starts earlier on the clock, even though the days are shorter.
Isha is earliest at 6:18 PM on 21 November, thirty days before the winter solstice on 21 December. The shortest fast, 11h 23m, waits until 17 December, so the evening prayer and the length of the fast reach their low points at different times. Fajr, by contrast, is earliest in summer, at 4:48 AM on 6 June.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Standard and Hanafi Asr in Lafayette?
Standard Asr, highlighted here, begins when an object's shadow matches its height plus the noon shadow. Hanafi Asr begins when the shadow is twice as long, so it falls later in the afternoon. Use the switch on the page to change the highlight.
Why does the Qibla in Lafayette point toward the north-east?
The bearing is 48 degrees clockwise from true north, just east of north-east. Makkah is far to the east, but the shortest path across the globe heads out over the North Atlantic, so the direction leans north of east.
How early is Fajr in summer in Lafayette?
As early as 4:48 AM on 6 June, fifteen days before the solstice. Isha is latest on the solstice itself, 21 June, at 9:32 PM, so the earliest morning and the latest evening are more than two weeks apart.
Does Lafayette have its shortest fast on the winter solstice?
No, it comes on 17 December, four days earlier, at 11h 23m. The longest fast is 15h 25m on 20 June, the day before the June solstice.
