10 other cities in Pakistan are listed on this site, each with its own calculated timetable. The list under the timetable below will take you to any of them.

A note on the method used

The calculation used here is Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. Methods differ mainly over Fajr and Isha, because each authority settles on a slightly different angle of the sun below the horizon — a few minutes either way is normal. Asr is Hanafi on this page, so expect it later than a Shafi timetable would show. Where your local mosque differs, follow the mosque — that is the timetable the congregation keeps.

Today's timetable

Fajr is at 4:57 am — early, and in darkness. By 6:24 am the sun is up and Fajr's time has passed. Dhuhr follows at 11:51 am once the sun has tipped past its highest point, and Asr at 3:41 pm. The sun goes down at Maghrib, 5:19 pm, and the day ends with Isha at 6:49 pm. That gives Rawalpindi roughly 10 hours and 55 minutes of daylight today.

Lining up with the Kaaba

From this city the direction is west-south-west, or 256° if you prefer the number. That puts the Kaaba roughly 3,527 km — 2,192 miles — from here. If you are marking a permanent direction in a room, check true north rather than trusting a phone compass alone.

The fasting day in Rawalpindi

Suhoor closes at 4:57 am in Rawalpindi, with iftar at 5:19 pm. Roughly 12 hours and 22 minutes, going by today's figures. The monthly table further down shows the window widening or narrowing day by day, which helps when planning meals a week ahead.

The yearly swing

Rawalpindi sits far enough from the equator for the difference to be felt. Midsummer stretches the day, midwinter compresses it, and the prayer times follow.
