How Ratangarh's prayer times are worked out

From Ratangarh, the Qibla is 266° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,578 km (2,223 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ratangarh's own coordinates (28.08°N, 74.62°E), not a national average. That is why Ratangarh's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ratangarh timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ratangarh lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 40 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:30 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 29m near June down to 11h 45m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ratangarh 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 Sardārshahr, Chūru and Sūjāngarh. Each is only a few minutes off Ratangarh's clock.
