How Model Town's prayer times are worked out

From Model Town, the Qibla is 260° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,595 km (2,234 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Model Town's own coordinates (31.48°N, 74.33°E), not a national average. That is why Model Town's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Model Town timetable through the year. With the Karachi method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 15h 52m around June. It eases to 11h 33m by December. That is a 4h 19m swing, set by the city's latitude of 31.48°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Model Town 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. Model Town sits west of its Karachi meridian. The sun peaks about 11 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:48 AM. We also publish times for nearby Lahore, Muridke and Shekhupura. Each is only a few minutes off Model Town's clock.
