How are prayer times calculated for Bath?
Bath lies at a latitude of about 51.38°N, in Somerset. 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 07:45 and Maghrib falls at 18:01, giving 10h 16m between the two. As the year turns this daylight window lengthens and shortens, which is why Fajr (currently 05:53) and Isha (currently 19:46) shift gradually from week to week.
When praying in Bath, the Qibla is faced towards the Kaaba in Makkah, which lies on a bearing of 116° from here, roughly to the south-east — a great-circle distance of about 4,924 km.
Prayer times in Bath are very close to those in neighbouring towns, though they differ by a minute or two with distance. Nearby you can also check Bristol (18 km), Swindon (45 km) and Newport (50 km).
