How these times are calculated

- Fajr begins when the sun is 18° below the horizon (Dawn prayer, before sunrise).
- Dhuhr starts a minute after solar noon, when the sun passes its highest point.
- Asr is calculated with the standard (shadow equal to object length) convention.
- Maghrib begins at sunset.
