How to Determine Prayer Times

I picked up this info from Selamat Pagi Malaysia, should be real handy for Muslim travellers out there.

How to Determine Prayer Times:

1. Determine the sunrise and sunset time. An easier way is that you acquire this info from local folks. Some magazine and newspaper might have this information.

2. Subuh prayer is before sunrise so you can pray around an hour before that.

3. Maghrib prayer start at sunset and last for about an hour. Then obviously Isya' is after that.

4. Zuhr prayer is halfway through sunrise and sunset time. So if sunrise at 6am and sunset at 6pm so Zuhr is at 12pm.

5. Asar prayer time is halfway through between Zuhr and sunset. Let say Zuhr is at 12pm and sunset at 6pm then Asar prayer is at 3pm.

Remember this, who knows you might end up in Russia or Iceland where Muslims are hard to find. Anyway, Eid Mubarak to all! And drive safely!
