How Niagara Falls's prayer times are worked out

From Niagara Falls, the Qibla is 55° from true north. Face northeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 10,510 km (6,531 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Niagara Falls's own coordinates (43.10°N, 79.07°W), not a national average. That is why Niagara Falls's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Niagara Falls timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Niagara Falls lies well west inside its Toronto time zone. So the sun peaks about 85 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:15 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 10m near June down to 10h 25m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Niagara Falls 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 St. Catharines, Welland and Buffalo. Each is only a few minutes off Niagara Falls's clock.
