How Nankana Sahib's prayer times are worked out

From Nankana Sahib, the Qibla is 260° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,536 km (2,197 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Nankana Sahib's own coordinates (31.45°N, 73.71°E), not a national average. That is why Nankana Sahib's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Nankana Sahib timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Nankana Sahib 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 51m near June down to 11h 33m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Nankana Sahib 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 Shahkot, Jaranwala and Chuhar Kana. Each is only a few minutes off Nankana Sahib's clock.
