Namaz Timings in India

Namaz timings differ from city to city as the sunset and sunrise timings are different and also the length of the day. Namaz is based on the length of the day and its pahar.

So if you are in a new city please check the namaz timings for that city. Also the namaz time changes from day to day and also month to month and season to season. We have given the namaz timetables for the major cities of India like Chennai, Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Hyderabad, and have provided a link for other cities of India.

We will shortly bring you ways to perform the regular namaz and also namaz for special occasions. The daily routine of the namaz generally consists of offering namaz five times a day at regular and fixed intervals.

Before you begin the Namaz you have do the waddoh which involves washing yourself in a prescribed manner. One generally uses a clean cloth or readymade mats for the Namaz. You have to offer your namaz facing the Kabah in Saudi Arabia. In India one has to mostly face towards the west as Arabia lies west of India.

Components of the Namaz

Each Namaz has a set of prayers to be done. These sets are named Sunnat, Farz and witr. Each namaz has a set of them that is to be performed. If you miss a particular namaz you must perform it when you get free. At that time you need to perform only the Farz portion of the namaj.
