How Kumarapalayam's prayer times are worked out

From Kumarapalayam, the Qibla is 290° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,178 km (2,596 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Kumarapalayam's own coordinates (11.45°N, 77.71°E), not a national average. That is why Kumarapalayam's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Kumarapalayam timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Kumarapalayam 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 06m near June down to 12h 43m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Kumarapalayam 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 Periya Semūr, Vīrappanchathiram and Erode. Each is only a few minutes off Kumarapalayam's clock.
