Sunrise, Daylight & Panchangam Timings in Sharjah
Sharjah lies at latitude 25.4°N. Across 2026, sunrise in Sharjah ranges from about 5:27 AM at its earliest (around Jun) to roughly 7:06 AM at its latest (around Jan). The longest day lasts about 13.7 hours near Jun, shrinking to roughly 10.6 hours around Dec.
Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika Kalam and the daily Muhurthams are each measured as fixed fractions of the time between local sunrise and sunset. Because that span changes through the year in Sharjah, these windows shift too — and they differ from every city in India. That is why this page recomputes the full Panchangam for Sharjah’s own coordinates and timezone each day, instead of reusing timings calculated for another location.
Common Questions — Panchangam in Sharjah
What time is sunrise in Sharjah?
Sunrise in Sharjah is not fixed — it varies from about 5:27 AM at its earliest (around Jun) to roughly 7:06 AM at its latest (around Jan). This page computes sunrise daily for Sharjah’s coordinates (25.4°N), so the Tithi, Nakshatram, Rahu Kalam and Muhurtham windows always reflect the real local day.
Why does Sharjah’s Rahu Kalam differ from the Panchangam my family uses in India?
Rahu Kalam is one-eighth of the daytime, measured from local sunrise to sunset. Sharjah runs about 1.5 hours behind India and sits at latitude 25.4°N, so its sunrise and day length are different — which means the eight Rahu Kalam slots land at different clock times. A Panchangam printed for Hyderabad or Vijayawada will not line up with Sharjah.
Can Telugu festival dates differ in Sharjah?
Yes, sometimes. Festivals are fixed by the Tithi at local sunrise (or moonrise/midday for some). Because Sharjah is about 1.5 hours behind India, a Tithi can begin or end on a different local date — so festivals such as Deepavali or Vinayaka Chavithi occasionally fall a day earlier or later than in India. Each festival date on this page is computed for Sharjah’s own timezone.
