Fajr and Isha at high latitudes
From 27 May to 16 July the sun in Zwickau never sinks 18.0° below the horizon, so the twilight that defines Fajr never fully ends.
For Isha (17.0°) this happens from 3 June to 9 July.
On those dates Fajr and Isha are estimated with the angle-based rule: the night is divided in proportion to the twilight angle, e.g. 18/60 of the night for 18°. You can choose another rule in the calculation settings.
How prayer times are set in Zwickau
Germany has no national timetable: each mosque or association sets its own, and many Turkish mosques follow Diyanet.
The times on this page show when each prayer begins. Congregation times are set by each mosque, so check them with the mosque you attend.
