How Ongole's prayer times are worked out

From Ongole, the Qibla is 285° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,281 km (2,660 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ongole's own coordinates (15.50°N, 80.04°E), not a national average. That is why Ongole's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ongole timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ongole lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 18 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:08 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 24m near June down to 12h 29m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ongole 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 Kandukūr, Chīrāla and Bāpatla. Each is only a few minutes off Ongole's clock.
