Bengaluru Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Bengaluru, India

Prayer times in Bengaluru are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (12.97°N). We use the Karachi method, the one followed across India. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Bengaluru's times use the Karachi method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in India. They are drawn from Bengaluru's own coordinates (12.9719°N, 77.5937°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Bengaluru's prayer times are worked out

From Bengaluru, the Qibla is 288° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,109 km (2,553 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Bengaluru's own coordinates (12.97°N, 77.59°E), not a national average. That is why Bengaluru's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Bengaluru timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Bengaluru lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 28 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:18 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 12m near June down to 12h 38m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Bengaluru 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. We also publish times for nearby Yelahanka, Electronic City Phase I and Hoskote. Each is only a few minutes off Bengaluru's clock.
