Development of a portable Muslim prayer time table clock

The five daily Muslim prayer times namely Fajr, Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha vary from place to place and from day to day. The timings of these five prayers are not even for locations with same time zones. The exact timing of each of the prayer is important, because it is obligatory for every Muslim...
