Prayer times in Bhatkal, Karnataka today

Today's Fajr time for Bhatkal is shown at the top of this page. It is calculated with the Karachi method (the sun 18° below the horizon) and changes by a minute or so each day. Sehri ends at Fajr.

From the position of the sun over Bhatkal (13.9853° N, 74.5553° E) with the method of the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi, which most Indian mosques use: Fajr and Isha when the sun is 18° below the horizon. Asr follows the Hanafi calculation (an object's shadow twice its length plus its noon shadow), as in most Indian mosques; you can switch to the standard (Shafi'i) Asr above, which is about 40–80 minutes earlier.

From Bhatkal the Qibla is at 287.7° (west), measured clockwise from north, so you face a little north of west. The Kaaba in Makkah is about 3,762 km away.

Mosques announce the jama'at (congregation) time, which is usually 15–30 minutes or more after the start of the prayer time shown here. Some timetables also add a few safety minutes, use the Hanafi Isha (when the white twilight ends) or follow their own local calendar. If in doubt, follow your local mosque.

No. India stays on Indian Standard Time (UTC+5:30) all year, so the prayer times only move with the seasons, never by a full hour.
