Prayer Time Orientation: Muslims in Cambridge follow the five daily prayers—Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha—timed according to the sun's position. Prayer times vary throughout the year due to Cambridge's latitude (52.2°N) and seasonal changes in sunrise and sunset. The city operates on the Europe/London timezone. The Qibla direction and distance to Mecca are key for orientation during prayer. The calculation method used here ensures accurate timings for the local community.
