For today, Aug 21, 2026, the Fajr prayer in Stavanger starts at 02:15. By tomorrow, the time will shift to 02:28, marking a difference of 14 minutes later due to the solar cycle.

Fajr is the dawn prayer, performed from the moment the first light appears in the sky until just before sunrise. It is the start of the spiritual day in Stavanger.

Because Stavanger is located at a high latitude of 58.97° N, it encounters the 'Persistent Twilight' phenomenon during the summer. At this latitude, the sun does not descend far enough (18 degrees) below the horizon. Consequently, Fajr is calculated using the 'Nearest Latitude' or 'One-Seventh' rule. During the month of August, the solar path in Stavanger results in a shifting schedule. The Fajr window is moving 14 minute(s) later by tomorrow. The Islamic night in Stavanger spans from sunset to dawn. Islamic Midnight is at 23:50, while the 'Last Third' of the night—the ideal time for Tahajjud—starts at 00:42.
