Prayer Times in Gujranwala, Pakistan

Gujranwala, hour by hour

Today runs to roughly 10 hours and 59 minutes of daylight in Gujranwala, from sunrise at 6:17 am to sunset at 5:16 pm. Prayer times are anchored to the sun rather than the clock, so as that figure grows and shrinks across the year, every time below moves with it.

What changes between summer and winter

Across the year the Gujranwala timetable shifts by an hour or two at each end — long summer evenings push Isha back, short winter days crowd Dhuhr, Asr and Maghrib together.

Suhoor and iftar in Gujranwala

The fasting day here runs 4:52 am to 5:16 pm: suhoor closes at the first, iftar comes at the second. Today it works out to some 12 hours and 24 minutes. Scroll to the month view to see how the length changes as Ramadan progresses.

The direction of prayer

The qibla from here runs west, a bearing of about 259°. That puts the Kaaba roughly 3,595 km — 2,234 miles — from here. Worth remembering that a phone compass points to magnetic north, which can sit several degrees off true north depending on where you are.

The calculation behind them

Calculations come from Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Where two calculations disagree it is nearly always Fajr or Isha: those depend on twilight, and twilight is a judgement call. For Asr this page uses the Hanafi position — later in the day than the majority view. Local practice wins over any website, this one included.
