Qibla direction in Sharjah

N

258° W

From Sharjah, the Kaaba in Makkah lies at 258° (W), measured clockwise from true north. It is about 1,649 km away as the crow flies.

A phone compass points to magnetic north, which differs by a few degrees depending on where you are. The qibla compass in Nur corrects for that.

Ramadan

Ramadan 1448 begins on Monday, 8 February 2027 by the Umm al-Qura calendar. On the first day the fast in Sharjah lasts about 12 h 31 min (Fajr 05:39 to Maghrib 18:10). Many mosques follow the moon sighting, so the start can differ by a day.

How these times are calculated

Calculation method: Dubai (Fajr 18.2°, Isha 18.2°). Asr by the standard rule (shadow equal to the object's length).

Why do apps and mosques show different times?

  • Fajr and Isha depend on how far the sun must be below the horizon. Timetables use different angles, usually between 15° and 20°. One degree can easily mean five minutes.
  • There are two rules for Asr: standard (shadow as long as the object; Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and Hanafi (twice the length). Hanafi Asr is later.
  • In summer it never gets fully dark at night in the UK and much of Europe. A fallback rule is needed then, such as a third of the night, and every timetable handles it a little differently.
  • Many mosques publish their own times and round or shift them by a few minutes. When in doubt, follow your mosque's timetable.

In the app you can pick your mosque's method under Settings → Calculation, switch Asr to Hanafi and shift every time by the minute.
