How the prayer times for Reading are calculated

Reading lies at 51.4562° N, 0.9711° W (England, the UK). The default is Moonsighting Committee: the Moonsighting Committee method was designed for middle and high latitudes and adjusts Fajr and Isha by season, which suits British summers.

In summer the sun does not sink deep enough for the Fajr and Isha angles in Reading – on 58 nights between 24 May and 20 July. The Moonsighting Committee method then uses its own seasonal values.

The Qibla direction from Reading to Makkah is 118.0° (clockwise from north).
