How Rānipet's prayer times are worked out

From Rānipet, the Qibla is 288° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,290 km (2,666 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Rānipet's own coordinates (12.92°N, 79.33°E), not a national average. That is why Rānipet's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Rānipet timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Rānipet lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 21 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 11:58 AM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 12m near June down to 12h 39m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Rānipet 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 Arcot, Vellore and Arni. Each is only a few minutes off Rānipet's clock.
