What latitude changes in Gorakhpur
At 26.8° latitude, the Sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon every night of the year: Fajr and Isha at 18° exist all year round in Gorakhpur.
When the angle is not reached, the “University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi” method uses the middle of the night: in 2026, the displayed Fajr comes from this rule on no day.
The Asr shown follows the practice of India: it begins when an object’s shadow is twice its height plus the noon shadow. Today it is at 15:47, 49 minutes after the one-shadow Asr (14:58).
With no published national convention in India, times follow the “University of Islamic Sciences, Karachi” method (Fajr at 18°, Isha at 18°), published in a neighbouring country.
