Tahajjud time, Islamic midnight and Duha in Chitral

Tonight's night prayer times and tomorrow morning's voluntary prayer times in Chitral, worked out from the same Maghrib and Fajr times as the table above.

Islamic midnight

23:13Halfway between Maghrib and Fajr

Last third of the night (Tahajjud)

01:15Until Fajr at 05:20

Ishraq

07:03About 15 minutes after sunrise (06:48)

Duha

07:03 – 11:58From Ishraq until Dhuhr (11:58)

Voluntary prayer is disliked while the sun is rising (until about 15 minutes after sunrise at 06:48), at its zenith (just before Dhuhr at 11:58) and while it is setting (just before Maghrib at 17:06). The schools differ in the details, for example about the time after Asr and about make-up prayers, so ask your own scholar if you are unsure.

The night is counted from Maghrib to the next Fajr. Times are calculated for Chitral with the same method as the rest of this page; they are not congregation times.

Chitral does not change its clocks; times stay on Asia/Karachi all year. How times are calculated

Chitral, the Sun and the clock

Chitral is in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and has about 57,000 people. The nearest larger city is Mingora, 130 km to the south-southeast. Chitral lies 3.2° west of the 75° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 13 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:13, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Chitral: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 78° above the horizon in June and only 31° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Chitral range from 9h 43m in December to 14h 36m in June, a difference of 4h 53m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. At 1,514 m above sea level, Chitral sits on high ground. Times are calculated for a level horizon; from a hilltop or a tall building sunrise can come a little earlier and sunset a little later than listed, while mountains to the east or west do the opposite.

Maghrib time Chitral compared with nearby cities

Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Chitral, calculated with the same method.
