Cosenza's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Italy. They are drawn from Cosenza's own coordinates (39.2989°N, 16.2531°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Cosenza's prayer times are worked out

From Cosenza, the Qibla is 125° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,994 km (1,860 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Cosenza's own coordinates (39.30°N, 16.25°E), not a national average. That is why Cosenza's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Cosenza timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 16h 57m around June. It eases to 11h 01m by December. That is a 5h 56m swing, set by the city's latitude of 39.30°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Cosenza come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League 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. Cosenza sits close to its Rome meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 12:53 PM today. We also publish times for nearby Lamezia Terme, Catanzaro and Crotone. Each is only a few minutes off Cosenza's clock.
