Muslim World League
The prayer times shown are calculated according to Muslim World League: Fajr is determined when the sun is 18° below the horizon, Isha at 17° below the horizon, and Asr is calculated using the standard rule (when an object's shadow equals its height plus noon shadow). Local mosques may introduce slight precautionary adjustments of a few minutes, so small discrepancies with your local timetable are normal.
