About
This project was created to support Ulemaa, researchers and islamic institutions in their efforts to standardize and unify prayer times calculation according to Islamic law and the related cosmic phenomena. It is particularly intended to provide a better understanding of the inner workings of the different calculation methods and parameters and how they lead to the resulting prayer times.
This project is subject to continuous improvement and refinement. Any ideas, suggestions or feedback are highly welcomed.
Important Notice
As stated in the header, this tool is solely for the purpose of research to be used by qualified researchers only. It is not ment to be used for performing Ibadaat. Please keep in mind that the matter of prayer times belongs to the domain of Fuqahaa' and has to be approved by them. Therefore, regardless of the precision and quality of given calculation algorithms, individualls shall not rely on any programms or given data sets to make their own prayer time calendars, but solely on decisions of qualified Ulema and/or Fiqh Councils.
