What latitude changes in Chartres

At 48.4° latitude, the Sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon every night of the year: Fajr and Isha at 18° exist all year round in Chartres. Only the 19.5° angle is not reached on 40 nights.

The “Grand Mosque of Paris” method never uses a Fajr earlier than the seasonal durations of the Moonsighting Committee (minutes before sunrise, depending on latitude and season): in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on 365 days, and Isha is counted in minutes after sunset.

In Chartres, times follow the country’s reference method, Grand Mosque of Paris (seasonal Fajr, Isha 90 min after sunset).
