FAQ about sun movement in

What time is sunrise in today?
Sunrise times in change throughout the year. Check the table above for today's exact sunrise time. Sunrise is when the upper edge of the sun appears above the horizon, accounting for atmospheric refraction.
What time is sunset in today?
Sunset times in vary by season. The table above shows today's exact sunset time. Sunset is defined as the moment the upper edge of the sun disappears below the horizon.
How long is the day in ?
Day length in changes throughout the year due to the Earth's axial tilt. In summer, days are longer, while in winter they are shorter. The difference can be significant depending on the city's latitude. Check the day length column in the table above.
What is solar noon?
Solar noon is the moment when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky for the day. It marks the midpoint between sunrise and sunset. Solar noon does not always occur at 12:00 clock time due to timezone boundaries, daylight saving time, and the equation of time.
What are the different types of twilight?
There are three types of twilight: Civil twilight (sun 0–6° below horizon) when there is enough light for outdoor activities; Nautical twilight (sun 6–12° below) when the horizon is still visible at sea; and Astronomical twilight (sun 12–18° below) when the sky is dark enough for astronomical observations. These phases are important for determining Fajr and Isha prayer times.
How does the sun affect prayer times?
All five Islamic daily prayers are determined by the sun's position. Fajr begins at dawn (astronomical twilight). Dhuhr starts after solar noon. Asr is when shadows reach a specific length. Maghrib begins at sunset. Isha starts when twilight disappears. Accurate sun data is essential for correct prayer times.
Why do sun times change with the seasons?
Sun times change because the Earth's axis is tilted at 23.44° relative to its orbit around the Sun. During summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, giving longer days. During winter, it tilts away, shortening days. This effect is more pronounced at higher latitudes.
What is the sun's altitude?
The sun's altitude is the angle between the sun and the horizon, measured in degrees. At sunrise and sunset it is 0° (accounting for refraction). At solar noon it reaches its maximum for the day. The maximum altitude depends on your latitude and the time of year.
What is the sun's azimuth?
The sun's azimuth is the compass direction of the sun measured in degrees from north (0° = North, 90° = East, 180° = South, 270° = West). The sun rises roughly in the east and sets roughly in the west, but the exact azimuth varies by season and latitude.
What happens at the equinox?
At the equinoxes (around March 20 and September 22), day and night are approximately equal in length everywhere on Earth. The sun rises almost exactly due east and sets almost exactly due west. After the March equinox, days get longer in the Northern Hemisphere; after the September equinox, they get shorter.

Solens bevægelse og bønnetider

Solens bevægelse har en helt central betydning for det muslimske bønneliv. Alle fem daglige bønner er direkte knyttet til solens position på himlen.

Sun position and Islamic prayer times

For Muslims, accurate sun data is essential for determining prayer times throughout the year. The relationship between the sun's position and the five daily prayers makes sun tracking a fundamental part of Islamic practice. Modern technology allows us to calculate these times with high precision for any location on Earth, ensuring that Muslims everywhere can observe their prayers at the correct times regardless of their geographic location.

Understanding twilight phases

De forskellige typer skumring – borgerlig, nautisk og astronomisk – spiller en vigtig rolle for bestemmelse af Fajr og Isha bønnetiderne.

How sun times are calculated

Sun times are calculated using astronomical algorithms that account for the Earth's axial tilt (23.44°), its elliptical orbit around the Sun, and atmospheric refraction. The calculations take your city's exact latitude and longitude to determine when the sun crosses specific angles relative to the horizon. Standard atmospheric refraction of 0.833° is applied to sunrise and sunset calculations. Twilight phases are defined by the sun's angle below the horizon: civil twilight at 6°, nautical at 12°, and astronomical at 18°. These precise calculations ensure accuracy to within one minute for any location worldwide.
