Calculation method in Nepal
By default we calculate prayer times in Nepal with the University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi method (Fajr 18°, Isha 18°), in line with the timetables of the religious authorities or most mosques in the country. You can choose another method on any city page.
Asr is calculated by the standard rule (Shafi‘i, Maliki and Hanbali schools): it begins when the shadow of an object equals its length plus its noon shadow. The later Hanafi Asr is shown on every city page too.
Our map data includes 298 mosques in Nepal; each city page lists the mosques nearby.
