Frequently asked questions
Which direction is the Qibla from Worcester?
The Qibla is 60 degrees clockwise from true north, a little east of north-east. On a globe the shortest path to Makkah leaves central Massachusetts heading out over the North Atlantic, which is why the bearing is not closer to east.
Why does Isha start so much later in June than in December in Worcester?
Two things add up. Sunset itself is later in June, and at 42.3 degrees north the summer sun sinks at a shallow angle, so evening twilight takes much longer to fade. In December both effects work the other way.
How do Worcester's longest and shortest fasts relate to the solstices?
The longest fast, 17h 02m, is on 18 June, three days before the June solstice. The shortest, 10h 29m, is on 20 December, one day before the December one.
How early is Fajr in Worcester in June?
As early as 3:25 AM, on 15 June, six days before the solstice on 21 June. By 6 November it is as late as 6:07 AM, so the dawn prayer shifts by more than two and a half hours.
