Today's Salah Times in Xian
Anchor your day at 03:48 in Xian — the prayer that moves first moves everything else with it.
Barakah of the Morning
“O Allah, bless my Ummah in its early mornings” — the dua of the Prophet ﷺ that lives inside Fajr at 03:48 in Xian.
City Coordinates
Xian is anchored at 34.3° latitude, 109.0° east — those numbers are what the calendar quietly uses to compute today’s 03:48.
Qibla Direction
From Xian, the Kaaba sits roughly to the west at a true bearing of about 278° — face that direction at 03:48.
A 17°–18° Baseline
The Muslim World League baseline near 18° is one anchor for global Fajr times; in Xian the chosen method (Muslim World League) places 03:48 consistently with that science.
Eastward Neighbour
Eastward of Xian, neighbours like Zhengzhou reach Fajr a few minutes earlier; today’s separation is about 21 minute(s).
Why Light Bends Before Sunrise
Atmospheric refraction lifts the sun’s image above the geometric horizon, lengthening dawn — your 104-minute window in Xian already accounts for this.
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 Xian.
Valleys vs Plateaus
In valleys, visible dawn lags the calculated Fajr; in Xian the calendar at 03:48 remains the fiqh reference regardless of terrain.
