What time is Maghrib in Surabaya?

Which calculation method is used for Surabaya?

These times use the SIHAT/KEMENAG (Kementerian Agama RI) method, which is the convention in this region. You can change the method on the prayer times page.

Why do prayer times differ between websites?

Nearly all of the difference comes from the angle each authority uses for Fajr and Isha. These times use the SIHAT/KEMENAG (Kementerian Agama RI) method. In Surabaya that matters by a measurable amount: a site using the ISNA method gives a Fajr 20 to 23 minutes later, and one using the Muslim World League method gives one 8 to 9 minutes later. A few minutes of variation between sources is normal; a difference of this size means a different method, not an error.

Are these times exact?

They are computed astronomically for -7.2575°, 112.7521° and are accurate to the minute at that point. The sun crosses 15° of longitude an hour, so moving 10 km east or west inside Surabaya shifts every time by about 22 seconds — one timetable therefore holds across the whole city. Local altitude has a smaller effect, on sunrise and sunset.
