How are prayer times calculated for Coventry?
Coventry lies at a latitude of about 52.41°N, in West Midlands. 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 07:43 and Maghrib falls at 17:56, giving 10h 12m between the two. As the year turns this daylight window lengthens and shortens, which is why Fajr (currently 05:49) and Isha (currently 19:43) shift gradually from week to week.
When praying in Coventry, the Qibla is faced towards the Kaaba in Makkah, which lies on a bearing of 118° from here, roughly to the south-east — a great-circle distance of about 4,925 km.
Prayer times in Coventry are very close to those in neighbouring towns, though they differ by a minute or two with distance. Nearby you can also check Nuneaton (13 km), Leamington Spa (14 km) and Solihull (18 km).
