| Summary: | The determination of accurate times for Fajr and
Dhuha prayers in Malaysia is faced with issues of differing
views in the fixation of the parameters of the sun's altitude used
in the calculation of astronomy, especially in Malaysia.
Therefore, this study aims to identify issues and problems in the
methods used in determining the accurate times for both these
prayers through a literature review of previous research studies.
The results show the need to review the parameters of sun
altitude used in calculating prayer times for both these prayers
through observations in changes in the brightness of the early
morning light for distinguish of true dawn and false dawn for
the Fajr prayers and the length of the shadow for Dhuha payer
by collecting data from all the states throughout Malaysia. |
