How prayer times are calculated in the United States
Pages for United States use the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) method: Fajr when the sun is 15° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 15° below the horizon. Times are shown in the local time of each city (UTC−5, UTC−4 in summer; UTC−6, UTC−5 in summer; UTC−8, UTC−7 in summer; UTC−7; UTC−7, UTC−6 in summer; UTC−9, UTC−8 in summer). In the capital Washington D.C., Fajr is around 4:08 AM and Maghrib 8:37 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 6:03 AM and Maghrib at 4:49 PM. Daylight there ranges from 9 h 26 min to 14 h 54 min.
Our cities in the United States stretch from Makakilo / Kapolei / Honokai Hale in the west to Bangor in the east, and from Fairbanks in the north to Hilo in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Bangor about 357 minutes before Makakilo / Kapolei / Honokai Hale, which is one reason the country uses several time zones. Day length also varies between north and south, especially in summer and winter, so the timetable of Washington D.C. is no substitute for that of your own city.
