Etāwa Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Etāwa, India

Prayer times in Etāwa are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (24.18°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.

Etāwa's times use the Karachi method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in India. They are drawn from Etāwa's own coordinates (24.1835°N, 78.2029°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Etāwa's prayer times are worked out

From Etāwa, the Qibla is 273° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,934 km (2,444 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Etāwa's own coordinates (24.18°N, 78.20°E), not a national average. That is why Etāwa's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Etāwa timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Etāwa lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 26 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:16 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 06m near June down to 11h 59m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Etāwa 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 Bīna, Khurai and Basoda. Each is only a few minutes off Etāwa's clock.
