Brahma Muhurta uses a fixed 48-minute muhurta. Navkarsi, Porsi, Sadh Porsi and Purimaddh follow the Jain pachchakkhan: a prahar is a quarter of the daytime, so it is longer in summer than in winter. Tulu-e-Aftab is the sunrise, the end of the Fajr window; follow your mosque for prayer times. How Navkarsi and Porsi are calculated · Methodology

In Sivaganga, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 12h 42m of daylight, and the shortest is 22 December, with 11h 33m: a difference of 1 hour 9 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 29 May (5:54 AM) and the latest sunset on 13 July (6:41 PM). These dates do not fall on the solstice because Earth's orbit is elliptical and its axis is tilted, so solar noon drifts through the year. Sivaganga lies between the tropics, so the sun is directly overhead at solar noon twice a year: on 15 April and 28 August.
