m.sufyan.dm Posted September 25, 2024 Report Share Posted September 25, 2024 Assalamu Alaikum, I am currently developing a website (Salatalert.com) that displays prayer timings, and it's live now. At the moment, I’m using the Umm al-Qura Makkah calendar to calculate prayer times. I wanted to confirm if this method is accurate according to the Sunni Hanafi Barelwi school of thought, especially Suni barelwi living in Saudi Arabia. Are there any specific adjustments needed for better alignment with Hanafi Barelwi practices? I have asked this question on a couple of other forums, but I haven’t received any responses. I would appreciate any guidance from the community here. JazakAllah Khair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quran learner Posted September 25, 2024 Report Share Posted September 25, 2024 If you are using the normal calculations for calculating times, then it will be fine since you are following all schools of fiqh except the Hanafi. However, if you would like to include them, you will need to dedicate specific times for them which almost adds 1 hour and a half for the Asr time and around 13 mins for Isha. Anyways, following the consensus of the schools of fiqh is easier and mostly the Hanafi ones will know the time on their own.

m.sufyan.dm Posted September 27, 2024 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2024 Thank you for the clarification. We are currently using the standard calculation methods, which should work for most users. However, we understand the importance of accommodating the Hanafi school for Asr and Isha prayers. We’ll consider adding an option for Hanafi timings in the future to ensure inclusivity. In the meantime, as you mentioned, most Hanafi followers are likely aware of the timing differences. Thanks again for your input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
