Asr: Standard vs Hanafi school

The majority (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) compute Asr when an object's shadow equals its own length; the Hanafi school waits until the shadow is twice the object's length. For Nairobi today:

Standard (Shafi/Maliki/Hanbali) 15:51 default

Hanafi 16:49

You can change the school at the top of the page. The default follows the school most common in the country.
