Prayer Times in Padangsidempuan, Indonesia

Prayer times in Padangsidempuan are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (1.38°N). We use the Kemenag method, the one followed across Indonesia. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Padangsidempuan's times use the Kemenag method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Indonesia. They are drawn from Padangsidempuan's own coordinates (1.3795°N, 99.2715°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Padangsidempuan's prayer times are worked out

From Padangsidempuan, the Qibla is 294° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 6,804 km (4,228 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Padangsidempuan's own coordinates (1.38°N, 99.27°E), not a national average. That is why Padangsidempuan's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Padangsidempuan sits just 1.38°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Kemenag method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 37m. The shortest is about 13h 26m. That is a swing of only 0h 11m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Padangsidempuan come from Kementerian Agama, Indonesia's Ministry of Religious Affairs. The Kemenag method sets Fajr when the sun is 20° 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 Sibolga, Rantauprapat and Pematangsiantar. Each is only a few minutes off Padangsidempuan's clock.

Who sets prayer times in Indonesia

Indonesia has a clear official source. The Ministry of Religious Affairs (Kementerian Agama, or Kemenag) publishes the Jadwal Shalat for districts across the country. It does so through its Directorate General of Islamic Community Guidance. Its method — Subuh 20°, Isya 18° — is the national standard and is what this page uses. Indonesian Islam is overwhelmingly Shafi'i, so Asr is called on the first-shadow rule and the later Hanafi time is not part of local practice. The live debate in Indonesia is not about Asr at all. It is about the Subuh angle, where a reduction from 20° to 18° has been argued over publicly.

Istiqlal, Demak and Indonesian mosque life

Jakarta's Istiqlal Mosque was inaugurated as the national mosque in 1978. It is the largest in Southeast Asia and holds well over 100,000 worshippers. Its architect, Friedrich Silaban, was a Protestant Christian and the son of a Batak Lutheran pastor; he won the open competition for the design. The mosque stands directly opposite Jakarta Cathedral, and a 28-metre "Tunnel of Friendship" now physically links the two. Java's oldest surviving mosque is the Great Mosque of Demak, which dates to 1479. It is tied to the Wali Songo, who spread Islam across the island. Banda Aceh's Baiturrahman Grand Mosque was completed in 1881 and famously survived the 2004 tsunami. Religious life is shaped by two mass organisations. Nahdlatul Ulama is traditionalist, explicitly Shafi'i, and the world's largest Islamic organisation; Muhammadiyah is reformist.
