Purnimanta month convention for East Ahmadi - Block 6, East Ahmadi, Ahmadi Governorate, Kuwait. The Hindu day runs sunrise to sunrise, so a Tithi or Nakshatra ending “after midnight” still belongs to this day. Sidereal positions use the Lahiri ayanamsa; other almanacs can differ by a few minutes. Methodology

Al Aḩmadī calendar and upcoming festivals

Al Aḩmadī Panchang for the following days

City data © GeoNames. Times for Al Aḩmadī, Kuwait, in Asia/Kuwait.

Why Al Aḩmadī has its own Panchang

Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat, Choghadiya and Hora are fractions of the local day, so they move with sunrise and sunset. Al Aḩmadī sits at 29.08°N, 48.08°E, 70 m above sea level, in the Asia/Kuwait time zone.

Tithi and Nakshatra end at the same instant everywhere, but the local clock time differs, and the Tithi at Al Aḩmadī's own sunrise decides which date a festival or vrat falls on here.

Questions

What is the tithi in Al Aḩmadī on 23 December 2026?

Shukla Chaturdashi is the tithi at sunrise (06:38 AM) in Al Aḩmadī and lasts until 08:18 AM. The tithi at sunrise names the day.

What is the nakshatra in Al Aḩmadī on 23 December 2026?

Mrigashirsha (pada 1), until 02:23 AM, Dec 24.

What time is sunrise and sunset in Al Aḩmadī on 23 December 2026?

Sunrise is at 06:38 AM and sunset at 04:55 PM, local time, for Al Aḩmadī's own coordinates.

When is Rahu Kaal in Al Aḩmadī on 23 December 2026?

11:47 AM to 01:04 PM. Rahu Kaal is one-eighth of the daytime, so it moves with Al Aḩmadī's sunrise and sunset.

When is Brahma Muhurat in Al Aḩmadī on 23 December 2026?

04:48 AM to 05:43 AM: the 14th of the night's 15 muhurtas, ending one muhurta (about 48 minutes) before sunrise, traditionally kept for prayer and study.

What time is moonrise in Al Aḩmadī on 23 December 2026?

The Moon rises at 04:12 PM and sets at 06:55 AM, Dec 24.

Which festivals and vrats fall on 23 December 2026 in Al Aḩmadī?

Margashirsha Purnima, by Al Aḩmadī's sunrise and moonrise.

Is 23 December 2026 a good day to start something new in Al Aḩmadī?

Who has Chandrashtama on 23 December 2026?

People with Tula (Libra) Moon sign, 04:06 PM, Dec 21 to 03:56 PM and people with Vrishchika (Scorpio) Moon sign, 03:56 PM to 03:03 PM, Dec 25: the Moon is in their 8th sign.

What is a Panchang?

A Panchang is the Hindu almanac. For each day it gives five details (panch anga, "five parts"): Tithi (lunar day), Vara (weekday), Nakshatra (the Moon's lunar mansion), Yoga (a Sun–Moon combination) and Karana (half a Tithi), along with sunrise-based timings used to choose a Muhurat.

What is Rahu Kaal?

Rahu Kaal is one-eighth of the daytime (sunrise to sunset), assigned to Rahu by weekday. Traditionally people avoid starting new ventures, signing agreements or beginning journeys in it. Because it depends on local sunrise and sunset, it differs from city to city and day to day.

Why does the Tithi change in the middle of the day?

A Tithi is the time the Moon takes to gain 12° on the Sun, so it can end at any hour. By convention the Tithi prevailing at sunrise names the day, which is why a festival can fall on a different civil date in different places.
