Times for the 15th of each month, in local clock time.

Daylight in Nottingham

On 21 June, the longest day, the sun is up in Nottingham for 16 hours 55 minutes between sunrise and sunset. On 21 December, the shortest day, it is up for 7 hours 34 minutes, a difference of 9 hours 21 minutes.

Nottingham Compared With London

Dhuhr in Nottingham falls about 5 minutes after London's today, because Nottingham is further west. On 21 June, the longest day, the sun is up for 16 hours 55 minutes in Nottingham against 16 hours 39 minutes in London, so Nottingham has about 16 minutes more daylight because it is further north.

How These Times Are Calculated for Nottingham

The times for Nottingham use the Muslim World League method, which sets Fajr at 18 degrees and Isha at 17 degrees. They are worked out from the position of the sun at 52.95 degrees latitude and -1.16 degrees longitude and shown in the Europe/London time zone, so they are in local time whatever device you use. The clocks here change twice a year, and the tables follow local clock time.

Dhuhr begins just after the sun passes its highest point, and Maghrib begins at sunset. Sunrise is not a prayer time, but it marks the end of the time for Fajr, and the hours between sunrise and sunset make up the day length shown above. Asr is shown two ways: in the standard method it begins when the shadow of an object equals its height, and in the Hanafi method when the shadow equals twice its height.

These times are calculated, so they may differ by a minute or two from a mosque timetable, and congregational times are set by your local mosque.

Fajr and Isha in Nottingham

Roughly from mid May to late July, the sky over Nottingham does not get dark enough for Fajr and Isha to be worked out from the sun's angle. This page uses the seventh-of-the-night rule in that period, which places Fajr a seventh of the night before sunrise and Isha a seventh of the night after Maghrib. The period lasts about 10 weeks, which is the stretch of the year when the sun stays within 18 degrees of the horizon at midnight. Local mosques may follow a different rule, so check your mosque's timetable for congregational times.

Clock Changes in Nottingham

The clocks in Nottingham change in spring and autumn, so prayer times on the clock jump by an hour on the day of the change even though the sun itself has not moved. The monthly table already follows local clock time, so you can read the times straight from it.

Which calculation method does this page use for Nottingham?

This page uses the Muslim World League method, which sets Fajr at 18 degrees and Isha at 17 degrees. The times are calculated from the sun's position at 53.0 degrees north, so they can differ by a minute or two from a Nottingham mosque timetable, and congregational times are always set by your local mosque.

What happens to Fajr and Isha in Nottingham in summer?

Roughly from mid May to late July, about 10 weeks in all, the sun over Nottingham does not sink far enough for the usual twilight angle to be reached. This page then uses the seventh-of-the-night rule, but mosques may choose another, so check your local timetable for Fajr and Isha.

Do prayer times in Nottingham change when the clocks change?

The sun does not change, but the clock does. Local time in Nottingham is GMT in winter and BST in summer, so each prayer moves by an hour on the clock when the clocks change. The tables on this page already use local clock time, so you do not need to adjust anything yourself.

How much does day length change through the year in Nottingham?

The sun is up in Nottingham for about 16 hours 55 minutes on 21 June and about 7 hours 34 minutes on 21 December, a difference of 9 hours 21 minutes. The further a city is from the equator, the bigger this gap, and the more its prayer times shift through the seasons.
