Today's Salah Times in Beijing
Across the year Fajr in Beijing swings between 02:43 and 05:55 — today’s 04:47 is one point on that arc.
Civil Time vs Solar Time
Beijing’s civil clock is a regional convention; the 04:47 you observe is rooted in actual solar geometry.
Compared to Shanghai
Beijing’s Fajr at 04:47 runs 16 minute(s) later than Shanghai — your local prayer should follow your own coordinates, not the largest city.
Blue Hour Geometry
The blue hour over Beijing fills roughly the second half of the 90-minute dawn window, ending at 06:17.
City Coordinates
Beijing is anchored at 39.9° latitude, 116.4° east — those numbers are what the calendar quietly uses to compute today’s 04:47.
Dawn vs Civil Light
Astronomical dawn at 04:47 precedes visible brightness by roughly 45 minutes — the sky is still dark at adhan, then unfolds quickly toward 06:17.
Egyptian General Authority
The Egyptian method places Fajr near 19.5°, producing earlier Fajr than 18° schemes — a small but visible shift on calendars in Beijing.
Karachi (Univ. of Islamic Sciences)
The Karachi method (18° / 18°) is widely used across South Asia; Beijing adopts Muslim World League instead, placing today’s Fajr at 04:47.
The First White Thread
The Qur’an’s “white thread of dawn distinct from the black thread” describes the moment Fajr begins — in Beijing that moment is fixed at 04:47.
