How Delhi Cantonment's prayer times are worked out

From Delhi Cantonment, the Qibla is 267° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,827 km (2,378 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Delhi Cantonment's own coordinates (28.60°N, 77.13°E), not a national average. That is why Delhi Cantonment's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Delhi Cantonment timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Delhi Cantonment lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 30 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:20 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 32m near June down to 11h 44m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Delhi Cantonment 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 Karol Bāgh, Hashtsāl and New Delhi. Each is only a few minutes off Delhi Cantonment's clock.
