Asr Timing in Vancouver
For today, Sunday, April 05, the Asr prayer in Vancouver starts at 16:52. By tomorrow, the time will shift to 16:53, marking a difference of 1 minute later due to the solar cycle.
Asr is the afternoon prayer. The timing is based on the length of shadows, marking a vital checkpoint between midday and sunset.
Because Vancouver is located at a high latitude of 49.25° 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, Asr is calculated using the 'Nearest Latitude' or 'One-Seventh' rule. During the month of April, the solar path in Vancouver results in a shifting schedule. The Asr window is moving 1 minute(s) later by tomorrow. The Islamic night in Vancouver spans from sunset to dawn. Islamic Midnight is at 00:15, while the 'Last Third' of the night—the ideal time for Tahajjud—starts at 01:43.
