How Minchinabad's prayer times are worked out

From Minchinabad, the Qibla is 262° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,501 km (2,175 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Minchinabad's own coordinates (30.16°N, 73.57°E), not a national average. That is why Minchinabad's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Minchinabad timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Minchinabad lies well west inside its Karachi time zone. So the sun peaks about 14 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:04 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 42m near June down to 11h 38m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Minchinabad 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 Pakpattan, Haveli Lakha and Bahawalnagar. Each is only a few minutes off Minchinabad's clock.
