Nokha's times use the Karachi method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in India. They are drawn from Nokha's own coordinates (27.5616°N, 73.4714°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Nokha's prayer times are worked out

From Nokha, the Qibla is 266° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,461 km (2,151 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Nokha's own coordinates (27.56°N, 73.47°E), not a national average. That is why Nokha's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Nokha timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Nokha lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 45 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:35 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 25m near June down to 11h 47m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Nokha 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 Nāgaur, Bikaner and Sri Dūngargarh. Each is only a few minutes off Nokha's clock.
