The main goal of this library is to allow applications to generate accurate prayer times based on the user's location and Fiqh method settings.

To learn more about the library interface, read prayer.h

By passing the appropriate values to the Method structure, the library is able to support all known methods of prayer time calculations for all the different schools of Fiqh there is. More importantly, the library is not restricted to a certain Fiqh, but instead, the user is fully able to customize the calculation method used based on their own school of Fiqh, actual observations, or scientific research.

The library can auto-fill the values for the most commonly used methods in many countries around the world. The library also supports prayer time estimation for high latitudes, as recommended by both traditional and modern scholarship.

See the doc/method-info.md file for the complete details.

The demo_prayer.c file shows a small example of using the library from the command line.

Included in the library is a "swig" directory that shows an example of creating a wrapper library using SWIG and accessing the library routines through a PERL script. (More info. at www.swig.org)

The current True North Qibla formula is simplistic and there is no support for Magnetic North Qibla calculations.

Needs improvement

More documentation and better error checking for the prayer code.
