When voluntary prayer is disliked

  • While the sun is rising: 08:03 – 08:18
  • While the sun is at its highest point, shortly before 12:25
  • While the sun is setting: 16:33 – 16:48

Approximate intervals of about 15 minutes. Voluntary prayer is also disliked after praying Fajr until sunrise and after praying Asr until sunset; in the Hanafi school no prayer at all is offered at the three times above. Scholars differ on the details; ask your local imam if in doubt.

Fajr and Isha at high latitudes

From 16 May to 27 July the sun in Den Helder never sinks 18.0° below the horizon, so the twilight that defines Fajr never fully ends.

For Isha (17.0°) this happens from 21 May to 22 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.

Prayer times by calculation method, 14 November

Mosques use different twilight angles for Fajr and Isha, which is why timetables in Den Helder can differ: today the earliest and latest Fajr are 34 min apart, and Isha differs by up to 31 min.
