How Les Rivières's prayer times are worked out

From Les Rivières, the Qibla is 60° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 9,772 km (6,072 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Les Rivières's own coordinates (46.82°N, 71.27°W), not a national average. That is why Les Rivières's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Les Rivières timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Les Rivières lies well west inside its Toronto time zone. So the sun peaks about 53 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:43 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 18h 00m near June down to 10h 04m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Les Rivières 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 La Cité-Limoilou, Sainte-Foy and Québec. Each is only a few minutes off Les Rivières's clock.
