How Shahuwadi's prayer times are worked out

From Shahuwadi, the Qibla is 283° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,612 km (2,244 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Shahuwadi's own coordinates (16.91°N, 73.95°E), not a national average. That is why Shahuwadi's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Shahuwadi timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Shahuwadi lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 43 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:33 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 30m near June down to 12h 25m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Shahuwadi 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 Urun-Islāmpur, Kolhāpur and Karād. Each is only a few minutes off Shahuwadi's clock.
