How are prayer times calculated for Georgetown?
Georgetown lies at a latitude of about 6.80°N, in Demerara-Mahaica. Because prayer times depend on the position of the sun at a given location, the timings here are calculated specifically for these coordinates rather than borrowed from another town.
Today the sun rises at 05:39 and Maghrib falls at 17:35, giving 11h 56m between the two. As the year turns this daylight window lengthens and shortens, which is why Fajr (currently 04:41) and Isha (currently 18:33) shift gradually from week to week.
When praying in Georgetown, the Qibla is faced towards the Kaaba in Makkah, which lies on a bearing of 68° from here, roughly to the east — a great-circle distance of about 10,550 km.
