The night after Sunday 6 December 2026 — how the night is measured
Islamic midnight is 22:52 and the last third of the night begins at 01:13 (next day). Measured from sunset (15:49) to the next morning's Fajr (05:55). Scholars differ on Isha after this point: some say its time ends here; others, including the Ḥanafī school, that it remains valid until Fajr but is disliked after this point. How this is worked out.

These times are produced by our own calculation engine using the published methodology. Our validation includes astronomical comparison with the US Naval Observatory and prayer-time comparisons against external reference data. Differences can occur between calculation methods, so please follow your local mosque for congregational prayer.
About prayer times in Nottingham
These prayer times are calculated for Nottingham, in Nottinghamshire, at 52.9536° N, 1.1505° W, in the Europe/London timezone, so they follow the clocks when British Summer Time begins and ends. They are produced by AllPrayerTime's own calculation engine from those coordinates, following the published methodology, and are not copied from another timetable.
Standard and Hanafi Asr
Both Asr times are listed every day: Standard (Mithl 1) and Hanafi (Mithl 2). In Nottingham the two are about twenty-eight minutes apart around the December solstice, and a little over an hour and a quarter apart in the days around the June solstice. Neither is presented as the correct one — follow the convention you or your mosque use.
Short summer nights
Nottingham sits far enough north that the usual twilight angles are out of reach for part of the summer. From the middle of May until the end of July the sun does not sink the 18° below the horizon that Fajr is based on, and from the third week of May to the fourth week of July it does not reach the 17° used for Isha. Around the June solstice, Fajr is published at about 3:38am and Isha at about 10:35pm.
When an angle-based time is unavailable, or would fall outside the approved limit, the one-seventh-of-the-night rule sets the published time. Taking the night as sunset to sunrise, Fajr is not placed earlier than the start of its last seventh, and Isha not later than the end of its first seventh; the two are handled separately. In Nottingham the limit applies to Fajr from the last days of February into the middle of October, and to Isha from the second week of March to the first days of October. From November until late February it is not needed. Each date where it has been applied says so, and shows the angle-based time beside it where one exists.
Before you rely on these times
The methodology page explains the angles used, the high-latitude rule, the two small margins added to Dhuhr and Maghrib, how times are rounded to the minute, and how results are checked against independent references.
For congregational prayer, follow your local mosque. Mosques may use different angles, margins or Asr conventions, so jama'ah times — especially Fajr and Isha — can differ from the calculated times on this page. If a time here looks wrong, please report it.
