Calculated with the Muslim World League method.

Each country has its own reference method for the prayer times, and in Palestine we use the Muslim World League method (Fajr at 18°, Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon). Times are shown in local time (UTC+2, UTC+3 in summer) and follow daylight saving time automatically when it applies. Small differences of a minute or two with the local mosque are normal, as some mosques add a few minutes of precaution.
