Sawangan's times use the Kemenag method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Indonesia. They are drawn from Sawangan's own coordinates (6.4028°S, 106.7744°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Sawangan's prayer times are worked out

From Sawangan, the Qibla is 295° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 7,922 km (4,923 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Sawangan's own coordinates (6.40°S, 106.77°E), not a national average. That is why Sawangan's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Sawangan sits just 6.40°S of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Kemenag method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 56m. The shortest is about 13h 09m. That is a swing of only 0h 47m between December and June. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Sawangan 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. Sawangan sits close to its Jakarta meridian, so Dhuhr lands near midday — 11:38 AM today. We also publish times for nearby Depok, Parung and Pamulang. Each is only a few minutes off Sawangan's clock.
