Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Royston, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.

Duha

Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 07:18), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:50) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 16:13). 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 Royston 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. Royston 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

Royston, the Sun and the clock

Royston is in England and has about 16,000 people. The nearest larger city is Cambridge, 19 km to the north-northeast. Royston lies almost on the 0° meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest close to 12:00 on the clock, around 12:00 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 13:00.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Royston: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 61° above the horizon in June and only 15° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Royston range from just 7h 44m in December to 16h 45m in June, a difference of 9h 1m. Prayer times move a lot through the year: in June Fajr comes very early and Isha very late.
