Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 07:36), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:56) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 16:08). 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 Gateshead with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Daylight saving

29 March, 25 OctoberEurope/London

Clocks change on 29 March and 25 October. Prayer times on those days shift by an hour on the clock, not in the sky. Gateshead is above 48° latitude, so in summer twilight never fully ends. The Moonsighting Committee method then limits Fajr and Isha with its seasonal adjustment, a standard high latitude rule. How times are calculated

Gateshead, the Sun and the clock

Gateshead is in England and has about 78,000 people. The nearest larger city is Newcastle upon Tyne, 2 km to the north-northwest. Gateshead lies 1.6° west of the 0° meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 6 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:06, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 13:06.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Gateshead: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 58° above the horizon in June and only 12° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Gateshead range from just 7h 10m in December to 17h 22m in June, a difference of 10h 12m. Prayer times move a lot through the year: in June Fajr comes very early and Isha very late.
