Asr starts when shadow length = object length.
Daily prayer times (Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha) for your country with countdown to next prayer.
The Salah Times Calculator shows the five daily prayer times — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — calculated for the city of your selected country, plus auxiliary times like Sunrise, Sunset, Imsak (Sehri end), and Midnight. Times come from the Aladhan prayer-times API and are computed using the calculation methodology that is standard in your region (Karachi for Pakistan/India, ISNA for North America, Umm al-Qura for Saudi Arabia, Diyanet for Turkey, and others). The next prayer is highlighted with a live countdown that updates every minute, and a 24-hour timeline shows where the day's prayers fall relative to the current moment.
Formula
Sun position is computed astronomically for your latitude/longitude on a given date. Each prayer corresponds to a specific solar event: Fajr — true dawn (sun ~18° below horizon, varies by method); Dhuhr — sun crosses meridian; Asr — shadow length = object length (Shafi'i) or 2× object length (Hanafi); Maghrib — sunset; Isha — true night (~17° below horizon, varies by method).The hardest thing about prayer times is not finding them — every app on the phone has them. It is trusting which version is right when three different sources disagree by ten minutes. The reason they disagree is methodology: Karachi method, ISNA, Umm al-Qura, MWL — each picks a slightly different sun angle for Fajr and Isha, and your local mosque has quietly picked one. This calculator lets you match your mosque exactly: pick the same method, pick Hanafi or Standard for the Asr split, and the numbers line up to within a minute or two. The Hanafi Asr question is the one people most often get wrong if they have moved schools — in most of Pakistan and India the community follows Hanafi, so Asr starts noticeably later than the iPhone default. If you are an expat in the Gulf, your apartment app probably defaults to Umm al-Qura, which means Isha is set as a fixed 90 minutes after Maghrib rather than calculated from the sun — perfectly fine, just different from what your father in Lahore is praying at. Set it once, and the daily countdown tells you when to put the phone down and walk to the mosque.
The Salah Times Calculator shows the five daily prayer times — Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha — calculated for the city of your selected country, plus auxiliary times like Sunrise, Sunset, Imsak (Sehri end), and Midnight. Times come from the Aladhan prayer-times API and are computed using the calculation methodology that is standard in your region (Karachi for Pakistan/India, ISNA for North America, Umm al-Qura for Saudi Arabia, Diyanet for Turkey, and others). The next prayer is highlighted with a live countdown that updates every minute, and a 24-hour timeline shows where the day's prayers fall relative to the current moment. Your calculation method and madhab (Shafi'i for the standard Asr ruling, Hanafi for the later Asr) are remembered between visits.
The exact angle thresholds for Fajr and Isha are what differentiate one calculation method from another. The Karachi method (used in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan) uses 18° for both Fajr and Isha. ISNA uses 15° for both. Umm al-Qura (Saudi Arabia) uses 18.5° for Fajr and a fixed 90 minutes after Maghrib for Isha. The differences between methods are typically 5–20 minutes and reflect different juristic interpretations of when 'true dawn' or 'true night' begins. The madhab (school) only affects the Asr time: the Hanafi school holds that Asr begins later in the afternoon, when an object's shadow equals twice its length plus the noon shadow, instead of just one length.
In Karachi (24°N) the difference between summer and winter Fajr is about 90 minutes; in London (51°N) it can exceed 4 hours.
Mecca's Fajr stays within ~50 minutes of 5:00 AM year-round because the city sits near 21° latitude.
Reykjavik (64°N) has continuous twilight for parts of summer — Isha is calculated using a fixed offset after Maghrib in those weeks.
Istanbul's Diyanet timings are followed by ~30 million Turkish-speaking Muslims across Turkey, Germany, and the Balkans.
In Karachi, Pakistan, summer Fajr is around 4:20 AM and winter Fajr around 5:45 AM — the variation is driven by the changing day length.
Sehri (the pre-dawn meal during Ramadan) ends at Imsak time, which is typically 10–15 minutes before Fajr to leave a buffer.
Iftar at sunset corresponds exactly to Maghrib time — the moment the sun's upper limb dips below the horizon.
Asr in Lahore using the Hanafi madhab is typically 30–60 minutes later than Asr using the Shafi'i / standard ruling — important for travellers and converts who follow one specific school.
In high-latitude countries (Norway, Sweden, UK in summer), some methods cap Isha to a fixed offset after Maghrib because true night never falls — the Aladhan API handles this automatically based on the chosen method.
Diyanet (Turkey) is widely used by the Turkish diaspora across Europe and is the official method for prayer schedules in Turkey.
