How Karlsruhe's prayer times are worked out

From Karlsruhe, the Qibla is 127° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,134 km (2,569 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Karlsruhe's own coordinates (49.01°N, 8.40°E), not a national average. That is why Karlsruhe's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Karlsruhe timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Karlsruhe lies well west inside its Berlin time zone. So the sun peaks about 35 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:31 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 19m near June down to 10h 10m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Karlsruhe 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. We also publish times for nearby Pforzheim, Baden-Baden and Speyer. Each is only a few minutes off Karlsruhe's clock.
