Praying in Raleigh
Raleigh's earliest Isha, 6:16 PM, arrives on 28 November, twenty-three days ahead of the winter solstice. The shortest day of the year is not the earliest evening: the prayer has already begun to move later by the time midwinter comes, more than three weeks after its low point.
The seasons stretch the fast by just over five hours, from 11h 00m on 18 December to 16h 03m on 19 June. The June evening is long too, with Isha as late as 10:02 PM on the solstice itself, 21 June, and Fajr down to 4:31 AM on 9 June.

Frequently asked questions
How do Ramadan fasts in 2027 compare with the rest of the year in Raleigh?
Ramadan is expected around 8 February to 8 March, with fasts from 11h 52m to 12h 51m. Even the last one is more than three hours shorter than the summer peak of 16h 03m, and much nearer December's low of 11h 00m.
Do Raleigh Salah times shift when the clocks change in March?
Clocks go forward on 14 March, six days after Ramadan is expected to end around 8 March, so the fasting month itself falls on standard time. The clocks go back on 7 November. The page already shows local time for each date.
When does Fajr start earliest in Raleigh?
At 4:31 AM on 9 June, 12 days before the solstice on 21 June. By 6 November Fajr has moved to 6:29 AM, its latest, so the morning prayer shifts by about two hours.
Is the longest fast in Raleigh on the summer solstice?
No. It is 16h 03m on 19 June, two days earlier. Isha, by contrast, is latest on 21 June, so the hardest day for fasting and the latest evening prayer are not the same day.
