How Burnaby's prayer times are worked out

From Burnaby, the Qibla is 17° from true north. Face north to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 11,972 km (7,439 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Burnaby's own coordinates (49.27°N, 122.95°W), not a national average. That is why Burnaby's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Burnaby timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Burnaby lies well west inside its Vancouver time zone. So the sun peaks about 80 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:10 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 21m near June down to 9h 50m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Burnaby come from the Islamic Society of North America. The ISNA method sets Fajr when the sun is 15° below the horizon, and Isha at 15°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Metrotown, Renfrew-Collingwood and New Westminster. Each is only a few minutes off Burnaby's clock.
