Duha

Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 07:55), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 12:18) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 16:39). 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 Veendam with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Daylight saving

29 March, 25 OctoberEurope/Amsterdam

Clocks change on 29 March and 25 October. Prayer times on those days shift by an hour on the clock, not in the sky. Veendam is above 48° latitude, so in summer twilight never fully ends. Fajr and Isha then use the seventh-of-the-night rule, a standard high latitude adjustment. How times are calculated

Veendam, the Sun and the clock

Veendam is in Groningen and has about 28,000 people. The nearest larger city is Groningen, 24 km to the west-northwest. Veendam lies 8.1° west of the 15° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 32 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:32, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 13:32.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Veendam: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 60° above the horizon in June and only 13° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Veendam range from just 7h 32m in December to 16h 57m in June, a difference of 9h 25m. Prayer times move a lot through the year: in June Fajr comes very early and Isha very late.
