- Islamic midnight
- 22:58Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr
- Last third of the night (Tahajjud)

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 Elgin with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Ramadan timetable for ElginElgin, the Sun and the clock
Elgin is in Illinois and has about 110,000 people. Elgin lies 1.7° east of the 90° W meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest about 7 minutes before 12:00 on average, around 11:53, and Dhuhr comes earlier than the clock suggests. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 12:53.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Elgin: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 71° above the horizon in June and only 25° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Elgin range from just 9h 6m in December to 15h 15m in June, a difference of 6h 9m. Prayer times move a lot through the year: in June Fajr comes very early and Isha very late.
