What latitude changes in Sibu
At 2.3° 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 Sibu.
When the angle is not reached, the “JAKIM (Malaysia)” method uses the middle of the night: in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on no day.
In Sibu, times follow the country’s reference method, JAKIM (Malaysia) (Fajr at 18°, Isha at 18°).
