Abstract :
This paper aims to describe the computational calculation of prayer times that was applied to IMS application for a location-based content utility service terminal. In order to calculate the prayer time, a number of properties that relate to the sun such as declination of angle should be taking in consideration. The solar declination reading is used to determine the time begins and time ends of each prayer times. The descriptions for start and end times for Salats is different according to different school.
