How Moncton's prayer times are worked out

From Moncton, the Qibla is 65° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 9,368 km (5,821 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Moncton's own coordinates (46.09°N, 64.80°W), not a national average. That is why Moncton's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Moncton timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Moncton lies well west inside its Moncton time zone. So the sun peaks about 88 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:17 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 49m near June down to 10h 09m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Moncton 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 Saint John, Fredericton and Lower Sackville. Each is only a few minutes off Moncton's clock.
