Does the Muslim prayer time change every day?

Yes, slightly. About a minute a day. Going up in the A.M. and down in the P.M. See the site I link to below.

Note that the last Sunday of October starts daylight savings time so the times start to offset back one hour on the 27th. ALSO NOTE, that one of the earlier shootings occurred right at one of the evening prayer times. BUT afternoon and evening prayers can be COMBINED. This is permitted. Especially if the Muslim is "traveling".

Go here.

Enter city ="Washington"

Enter Country ="USA",

You will get a list, click on #4 (Washington, DC - 38.9 N, 77 W). This will give you the prayer times.

It's tied to their lunar calendar. Not surprising, since Allah, the principal deity of the pre-Islamic pagan religion of Arabs in Mecca, was a moon god.
