How Shyamnagar's prayer times are worked out

From Shyamnagar, the Qibla is 278° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,980 km (3,094 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Shyamnagar's own coordinates (22.83°N, 88.37°E), not a national average. That is why Shyamnagar's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Shyamnagar timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Shyamnagar lies well east inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 15 minutes before clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 11:22 AM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 14h 59m near June down to 12h 05m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Shyamnagar 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 Bhadreswar, Chandannagar and Bhātpāra. Each is only a few minutes off Shyamnagar's clock.
