Frequently asked questionsAll FAQs

How are prayer times calculated?

Times are derived astronomically from the sun's position over your exact coordinates: solar noon anchors Dhuhr, twilight depression angles anchor Fajr and Isha, and Asr follows the shadow-length rule of your chosen madhab. We use the open-source Adhan engine, verified against published timetables.

Which calculation method should I use?

Choose the convention your local mosque follows. NextSalahClock defaults to the most common method for each country (e.g. Umm al-Qura for Saudi Arabia, ISNA for the United States), and you can change it anytime in Settings.

Why is my city's time different from my mosque's printed calendar?

Mosque calendars often add safety margins, apply juristic preferences, or publish iqamah (congregation) times rather than prayer start times. Use the per-prayer minute adjustments in Settings to align exactly with your local calendar.

Do prayer times account for daylight saving time?

Yes. Every city page uses its own IANA timezone (e.g. Europe/London), so DST transitions are handled automatically and the countdown stays correct across clock changes, midnight rollover and sleeping browser tabs.
