Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 06:10), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 12:32) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 18:51). The schools differ in the details, for example about the time after Asr and about make-up prayers, so ask your own scholar if you are unsure.

The night is counted from Maghrib to the next Fajr. Times are calculated for Palmerston with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Palmerston does not change its clocks; times stay on Australia/Darwin all year. How times are calculated

Palmerston, the Sun and the clock

Palmerston is in Northern Territory and has about 34,000 people. The nearest larger city is Darwin, 16 km to the west. Palmerston lies 11.5° west of the 142.5° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 46 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:46, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

Palmerston lies within the tropics. Around 16 February and 27 October the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Days in Palmerston range from 11h 23m in June to 12h 52m in December, a difference of 1h 29m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Palmerston is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then.

Maghrib time Palmerston compared with nearby cities

Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Palmerston, calculated with the same method.
