Which prayer time calculation method is used in Bangladesh?

How is Fajr time calculated for Dhaka?

Fajr begins at true dawn (subh sadiq), when the sky first shows a horizontal band of light along the eastern horizon. Different scholarly bodies use different sun-angle values (typically 15° to 20° below the horizon) to compute this. On this page for Dhaka, the default is the Muslim World League method (18°) unless you have saved a different method. Your selected method is shown with the times.

Is Dhaka at a high latitude?

No — Dhaka is at latitude 23.8°, well within normal ranges where the sun sets and rises reliably every day. Standard prayer-time calculation methods apply directly, without high-latitude adjustments.

Do prayer times differ within Dhaka?

Within the city of Dhaka, prayer times differ by seconds — not enough to matter in practice. The times shown are for the city center coordinates (23.8103, 90.4125). If you're outside the metropolitan area, use the Qibla and location tools to get times for your exact location.

Does Bangladesh observe daylight saving time?

No — Bangladesh does not observe daylight saving time. The Asia/Dhaka timezone stays fixed year-round, which means prayer times here are predictable from month to month. Fajr shifts earlier as summer approaches and Isha shifts later, but the clock on the wall never jumps by an hour.

Can I pray in hotels, malls, and offices in Dhaka?

Yes — airports, malls, and most public buildings in Bangladesh include designated prayer rooms (musalla / surau). Larger offices typically have in-house prayer facilities.
