Frequently Asked
What time is the Maghrib adhan?
The Maghrib adhan is called when the Maghrib time enters — the same time shown in the table above for your city. It shifts slightly each day with the sun.
Why does the Maghrib time differ by city?
Because the sun rises and crosses the meridian at different moments in each place. Eastern cities enter Maghrib before western ones, and latitude shifts it too.
Which method is used?
Times are computed with the Kemenag method (Fajr 20°, Isha 18°, 2-min ihtiyati) — the same as Indonesia's official schedule. This is a computation, not an official body's table; always follow your local mosque.
