A phone compass shows magnetic north, so the QiblaTrue app corrects for the difference. Allah says: “So turn your face towards the Sacred Mosque [in Makkah]” (Quran 2:144, translation: Rowwad Translation Center via QuranEnc). ### Which calculation method is used for Glasgow? Moonsighting Committee, the default the QiblaTrue app uses in the United Kingdom, with Hanafi Asr. The app offers 14 methods if your community follows another. ## How are prayer times calculated for Glasgow? Prayer times are set by the sun, so they change through the year and from place to place. Glasgow lies at 55.9° north, and this page works out each time from that position using the Moonsighting Committee method. The Islamic day begins at sunset, with **Maghrib** (this method adds 3 minutes after sunset as a margin). **Isha** follows when the last light has left the sky, taken here as the moment the sun is 18° below the horizon. **Fajr** starts with the first light of dawn, when the sun is 18° below the horizon before sunrise. **Dhuhr** begins once the sun has passed its highest point, when shadows are at their shortest; the method adds 5 minutes after solar noon as a margin. **Asr** is measured by shadow length. Most scholars, including the Shafi‘i, Maliki and Hanbali schools and Imam Abu Hanifa’s students Abu Yusuf and Muhammad, hold that Asr begins when an object’s shadow equals its own length (plus its midday shadow). Imam Abu Hanifa held that it begins when the shadow reaches twice the length. Both times are shown above; the Hanafi time is used in the week ahead because it is the usual choice in the UK. Glasgow is far enough north that the method fixes Fajr and Isha by dividing the night: Fajr is no earlier than one-seventh of the night before sunrise, and Isha no later than one-seventh of the night after sunset. From about 6 May to 7 August the sun does not go 18° below the horizon at all here. These are the times at which each prayer begins. Congregation (jamaat) times are set by each mosque and are usually a little later, and some mosques use a different method, so local timetables in Glasgow can differ by a few minutes. If your mosque publishes a timetable, follow it. > “Indeed, prayer is prescribed for the believers at specific times.” > > — Quran 4:103 · [Translation: Rowwad Translation Center, via QuranEnc](https://quranenc.com/en/browse/english_rwwad/4/103) ## Other cities in the United Kingdom - [Blackburn](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/blackburn) - [Bradford](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/bradford) - [Bolton](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/bolton) - [Rochdale](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/rochdale) - [Leeds](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/leeds) - [Oldham](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/oldham) - [Huddersfield](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/huddersfield) - [Manchester](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/manchester) - [Sheffield](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/sheffield) - [Birmingham](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/birmingham) - [Leicester](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/leicester) - [Luton](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/luton) - [Slough](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/slough) - [London](https://qiblatrue.com/prayer-times/united-kingdom/london)
