How Amalāpuram's prayer times are worked out

From Amalāpuram, the Qibla is 284° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,454 km (2,768 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Amalāpuram's own coordinates (16.58°N, 82.01°E), not a national average. That is why Amalāpuram's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Amalāpuram timetable through the year. With the Karachi method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 14h 28m around June. It eases to 12h 26m by December. That is a 2h 02m swing, set by the city's latitude of 16.58°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Amalāpuram come from the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi. The Karachi method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 18°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Amalāpuram sits west of its Kolkata meridian. The sun peaks about 10 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:47 AM. We also publish times for nearby Yanam, Palakollu and Mandapeta. Each is only a few minutes off Amalāpuram's clock.
