Ujjain Prayer Times

Prayer Times in Ujjain, India

Ujjain's times use the Karachi method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in India. They are drawn from Ujjain's own coordinates (23.1824°N, 75.7764°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Ujjain's prayer times are worked out

From Ujjain, the Qibla is 274° from true north. Face west to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 3,694 km (2,296 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Ujjain's own coordinates (23.18°N, 75.78°E), not a national average. That is why Ujjain's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Ujjain timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Ujjain lies well west inside its Kolkata time zone. So the sun peaks about 35 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:32 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 15h 01m near June down to 12h 03m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Ujjain 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 Dewas, Nagda and Bāngarda Chhota. Each is only a few minutes off Ujjain's clock.
