Prayer Times
Daily prayer times — fajr, dhuhr, asr, maghrib and isha — for any city, using the prayer method and Asr convention configured by the site operator. Visitors choose the location shown on the page.
From Location to Local Clock Time
A prayer timetable starts with a location. The calculator resolves the city coordinates and time zone, works out the relevant solar positions for that date, and then expresses the result on the local civil clock.
This is why two places sharing a time zone can still have different prayer times, and why a daylight-saving clock change alters the displayed clock time without moving the sun.
What the Settings Change
The prayer-method setting mainly affects how the timetable treats twilight-based entries such as Fajr and Isha. Asr is a separate setting because its calculation is based on a shadow convention rather than the same twilight input.
The page names the active settings so you can compare them with the timetable used by your mosque. If Fajr or Isha twilight cannot be resolved while sunrise and sunset still occur, the engine uses one-seventh of the night for the missing boundary; polar-day or polar-night cases can remain unavailable. The calculation page documents that limitation without repeating a method catalogue on every location URL.
When a Local Timetable Differs
Calculated tables are planning tools, not a replacement for a congregation’s published schedule. A mosque may use a different accepted method, an institutional adjustment or a local convention, so a small difference does not by itself show that either timetable is broken.
Questions People Ask
What information does the calculator need?
A city location, its time zone and the selected prayer settings. The page then converts the relevant solar calculations into local clock times.
Why can two cities in one time zone have different prayer times?
A shared clock does not mean a shared solar position. Longitude and latitude still change dawn, solar noon and sunset.
Why do calculation methods produce different tables?
The methods use different conventions for some twilight-based entries. The active method is named on the page so you can compare it with the schedule followed locally.
Why is Asr a separate setting?
The site treats Asr as a separate calculation choice rather than bundling it into the same twilight setting used for other entries.
Why might my mosque publish a slightly different time?
A mosque may use another accepted method, a local adjustment or an institutional timetable. For a congregation, its published schedule is the practical reference.
How are high-latitude dates handled?
If Fajr or Isha twilight cannot be resolved while sunrise and sunset still occur, the calculator uses one-seventh of the night for the missing boundary. Polar-day or polar-night cases can remain unavailable. This is a computational rule, not a site-issued religious ruling.
Do daylight-saving changes affect the table?
Yes. The astronomical calculation is converted through the selected city’s time-zone rules, so the displayed clock time follows an offset change.
