How Jaén's prayer times are worked out

From Jaén, the Qibla is 101° from true north. Face east to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,542 km (2,822 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Jaén's own coordinates (37.77°N, 3.79°W), not a national average. That is why Jaén's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Jaén timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Jaén lies well west inside its Madrid time zone. So the sun peaks about 84 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 2:13 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 42m near June down to 11h 08m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Jaén come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. 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 Linares, Granada and Campiña. Each is only a few minutes off Jaén's clock.
