How Ataşehir's prayer times are worked out

From Ataşehir, the Qibla is 152° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,397 km (1,490 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ataşehir's own coordinates (40.98°N, 29.12°E), not a national average. That is why Ataşehir's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ataşehir timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ataşehir lies well west inside its Istanbul time zone. So the sun peaks about 72 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:02 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 15m near June down to 10h 53m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ataşehir come from Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı, Türkiye's state religious authority. The Diyanet method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Ümraniye, Maltepe and Üsküdar. Each is only a few minutes off Ataşehir's clock.
