The year in Christchurch
Across 2026 Fajr in Christchurch moves between 03:21 and 06:20, and the fast from Fajr to Maghrib stretches from 10 h 40 min in June to 17 h 48 min in December. The gap between the two Asr measures is widest in summer and narrowest in winter, because it follows the sun's height, not a fixed number of minutes.
- Earliest Fajr: 03:21 on 16 December; latest: 06:20 on 24 June.
- Longest fast (Fajr to Maghrib): 17 h 48 min on 20 December; shortest: 10 h 40 min on 19 June.
- Shortest night between Isha and the next Fajr: 4 h 2 min on 19 December.
- Clocks change on 5 April and 27 September (Pacific/Auckland); the curve steps by an hour on those days.

Bearing from Christchurch (43.53° S, 172.63° E) to the Kaaba in Makkah along the great circle. It is measured from true north; a magnetic compass needs the local declination added.

Questions about Christchurch
When is Fajr in Christchurch in October 2026?
On 1 October Fajr in Christchurch is at 05:26, and on 31 October it is at 04:23. Around 14 October it moves about 2.1 minutes earlier each day. The full month is in the table above; the Sahaar app rings a real alarm at Fajr, through silent mode.
How far apart are the two Asr times in Christchurch?
On 14 October the Hanafi Asr (2× shadow) in Christchurch is 58 minutes after the standard Asr (1× shadow); across October the gap runs from 53 to 63 minutes. It is not a fixed offset: it depends on how high the sun climbs, so it widens in summer and narrows in winter. This page shows the Standard (1× / Asr al-awwal) time first because that is the measure in common use in New Zealand; the other is always beside it.
When are Maghrib and Isha in Christchurch this month?
Maghrib moves from 19:36 on 1 October to 20:13 on 31 October, and Isha from 21:08 to 21:57. Isha here follows the Muslim World League (MWL) twilight rule rather than a fixed number of minutes after Maghrib, so the Maghrib-to-Isha gap changes with the season too.
Which way is the qibla from Christchurch?
256° clockwise from true north, with the Kaaba 15,039 km away along the great circle. A phone compass points to magnetic north, so add your local magnetic declination before comparing; the Sahaar app does this for you.
Why might these times differ from my mosque's timetable in Christchurch?
Because a timetable fixes a method, an Asr measure and often a few minutes of caution, and this page only shows the calculation: Muslim World League (MWL) with the Standard (1×) Asr, and only the minute adjustments listed in the method box. A mosque using different twilight angles or the other Asr measure will differ by minutes at Fajr and Isha and by up to an hour at Asr. If your mosque publishes a timetable, follow it.
