Sitting at a latitude of about 40.4° in the northern hemisphere, Madrid's day length varies clearly between the long days of summer and the shorter days of winter. That is why its sunrise, sunset and day-length figures change from month to month, and why prayer times here follow the position of the sun rather than a fixed clock.
The prayer times shown for Madrid are calculated using the Muslim World League. The five daily prayers track the sun, so each one drifts a little earlier or later as the seasons turn.
