How Putatan's prayer times are worked out

From Putatan, the Qibla is 291° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 8,345 km (5,185 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Putatan's own coordinates (5.93°N, 116.06°E), not a national average. That is why Putatan's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Putatan sits just 5.93°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the JAKIM method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 54m. The shortest is about 13h 11m. That is a swing of only 0h 43m 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 Putatan come from JAKIM, Malaysia's federal Islamic authority. The JAKIM 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 Donggongon, Kota Kinabalu and Keningau. Each is only a few minutes off Putatan's clock.
