Today's Salah Times in Saipan
Dawn breaks over Saipan at 04:31. Meet it in sujood and the rest of the day arranges itself.
Solar Depression at Fajr
Fajr is fixed at 18° below the horizon in Saipan — the sun is still that far beneath the eastern skyline when adhan is called.
About 15° (ISNA)
A 15° angle (ISNA-style) typically produces a slightly later Fajr than 18° methods — a several-minute difference your calendar honours by choosing one explicitly.
A Stricter Fajr Angle
Saipan uses an 18°-class angle — among the most cautious — pulling today’s Fajr at 04:31 a few minutes earlier than 15° schemes would.
From Suhoor to Eid Fajr
On Eid morning, Fajr in Saipan sits near 04:31; the suhoor you cancelled is replaced by a takbir that fills the streets.
Why Light Bends Before Sunrise
Atmospheric refraction lifts the sun’s image above the geometric horizon, lengthening dawn — your 80-minute window in Saipan already accounts for this.
Umm al-Qura
The Umm al-Qura method, developed in Makkah, anchors Fajr to a defined offset before sunrise rather than a single solar angle.
Short-Dawn Bedtime
With only 80 minutes from Fajr to sunrise in Saipan, missing 04:31 forfeits the whole prayer — bed by 21:01 is not optional, it is the prayer’s prerequisite.
Why Muslim World League Here
Local authorities use the Muslim World League method, fixing dawn at 18° below the horizon — that single choice produces today’s Fajr at 04:31.
