How Thiruvananthapuram's prayer times are worked out

From Thiruvananthapuram, the Qibla is 294° from true north. Face northwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,225 km (2,625 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Thiruvananthapuram's own coordinates (8.49°N, 76.95°E), not a national average. That is why Thiruvananthapuram's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Thiruvananthapuram sits just 8.49°N of the equator. Its prayer calendar barely shifts across the year. With the Karachi method, the longest daily fast is about 13h 55m. The shortest is about 12h 53m. That is a swing of only 1h 02m between June and December. Whenever Ramadan falls, fasting hours here stay much the same — something cities farther from the equator never see.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Thiruvananthapuram 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 Pallichal, Nedumangād and Neyyāttinkara. Each is only a few minutes off Thiruvananthapuram's clock.
