JAKIM (Department of Islamic Development Malaysia)
Asr: Shafi'i
Calculation method
Fajr 20°, Isha 18° — Malaysia’s official convention.
Asr (madhab)
Overwhelmingly Shafi’i, following the national JAKIM timetable.
Local context
Equatorial, like Jakarta — prayer times change very little from month to month.
Setting it up
- Open your prayer-time app and pick Kuala Lumpur (or let it use your GPS).
- Set the calculation method to JAKIM (Department of Islamic Development Malaysia).
- Choose the Asr convention your mosque uses — here, typically Shafi'i.
- Compare one day’s Fajr and Maghrib against your mosque’s adhan; if they’re within a minute or two, you’re set.
