Capabilities6 decomposed
islamic prayer time calculation with geolocation
Medium confidenceComputes accurate Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha prayer times for any geographic coordinate using astronomical algorithms (likely Khalid's method or similar Islamic calendar computation). Integrates with FastAPI endpoints to accept latitude/longitude inputs and return prayer schedules with timezone-aware timestamps, enabling location-based prayer time queries without external prayer time APIs.
Exposes prayer time calculation as an MCP service rather than a REST-only API, enabling direct integration into Claude-based agents and other MCP clients without HTTP overhead; computation is deterministic and offline-capable, avoiding rate limits or external service dependencies
Lighter and more agent-friendly than calling external prayer time APIs (Aladhan, Prayer Times API) because it's self-hosted, MCP-native, and requires no API keys or rate-limit management
mcp server endpoint exposure for prayer calculations
Medium confidenceWraps FastAPI prayer calculation logic as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, exposing prayer time and Islamic calculation functions as callable tools that Claude and other MCP-compatible clients can invoke directly. Uses MCP's schema-based tool registration to define input/output contracts, allowing agents to discover and call prayer time functions without custom integration code.
Implements MCP server pattern to expose domain-specific Islamic calculations as first-class agent tools, rather than wrapping generic REST endpoints; enables Claude and other MCP clients to discover and invoke prayer time functions with schema-based contracts and native error handling
More agent-native than REST API wrappers because MCP clients (Claude) can discover and call tools directly without custom HTTP orchestration; avoids the latency and complexity of REST-to-agent adapters
hijri calendar date conversion
Medium confidenceConverts between Gregorian and Hijri (Islamic lunar) calendar dates using algorithmic conversion formulas. Accepts Gregorian date input and returns corresponding Hijri month, day, and year, enabling Islamic calendar-aware applications to display or filter by Islamic dates without external calendar libraries.
Provides deterministic Hijri conversion as an MCP-exposed service, avoiding dependency on external calendar libraries or APIs; enables agents to reason about Islamic calendar dates directly within agentic workflows
Simpler and more reliable than client-side calendar libraries because conversion logic is centralized, versioned, and accessible to agents; avoids the complexity of bundling multiple calendar implementations across different client platforms
qibla direction calculation
Medium confidenceCalculates the bearing (compass direction) toward Mecca from any geographic coordinate using spherical trigonometry (great-circle distance formulas). Accepts latitude/longitude and returns azimuth angle (0-360°) indicating the direction to face for prayer, enabling compass-based prayer direction features in mobile and web applications.
Exposes Qibla calculation as an MCP tool, allowing agents to compute prayer direction on-demand for any location without client-side math libraries; enables dynamic Qibla features in agent-driven applications
More flexible than hardcoded compass apps because calculation is dynamic and location-aware; MCP exposure enables agents to compute Qibla for arbitrary locations in real-time workflows
ramadan and islamic holiday date lookup
Medium confidenceProvides lookup tables or computed dates for major Islamic holidays (Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Islamic New Year, Prophet's Birthday) based on Hijri calendar conversion. Returns holiday dates in both Gregorian and Hijri calendars, enabling applications to highlight or schedule around Islamic observances without manual date management.
Integrates holiday lookup with Hijri calendar conversion, providing a unified source of truth for Islamic observances accessible via MCP; enables agents to reason about holiday schedules and trigger conditional logic based on Islamic calendar events
More reliable than scattered holiday APIs because dates are computed from a single Hijri conversion algorithm; MCP exposure allows agents to autonomously check holiday status during workflows without external API calls
fastapi rest endpoint exposure
Medium confidenceWraps all prayer calculation and Islamic date functions as FastAPI HTTP endpoints, exposing them as RESTful APIs with automatic OpenAPI/Swagger documentation. Enables non-MCP clients (web browsers, mobile apps, third-party services) to query prayer times and Islamic calculations via standard HTTP requests with JSON request/response bodies.
Dual-mode exposure (both REST and MCP) allows the same calculation logic to serve both traditional HTTP clients and modern MCP-based agents; FastAPI's automatic OpenAPI generation provides self-documenting APIs without manual schema maintenance
More accessible than MCP-only because REST APIs work with any HTTP client; automatic Swagger documentation reduces integration friction vs. custom API documentation

Best For
- ✓Islamic app developers building prayer time features
- ✓Teams building MCP-based agents that need prayer scheduling
- ✓Self-hosted deployments requiring offline prayer time computation
- ✓AI agent developers building Claude-based applications with prayer scheduling
- ✓Teams standardizing on MCP for tool orchestration across multiple services
- ✓Builders creating autonomous Islamic app assistants
- ✓Islamic app developers needing dual-calendar display
- ✓Teams building Ramadan or Hajj-related features
Known Limitations
- ⚠Accuracy depends on underlying astronomical algorithm implementation — may have ±1-2 minute variance vs. official Islamic calendars
- ⚠Requires precise latitude/longitude input; geocoding from addresses must be handled separately
- ⚠No built-in daylight saving time handling — timezone conversion responsibility on client
- ⚠MCP protocol overhead adds ~50-100ms per tool invocation vs. direct function calls
- ⚠Requires MCP-compatible client (Claude, custom MCP runners); not compatible with standard REST clients without adapter
- ⚠Tool discovery and schema validation happen at runtime — no compile-time type safety
