Frequently asked questions
Why is Rahu Kaal at a different time each day in Abu Dhabi?
Rahu Kaal is one-eighth of the time between local sunrise and sunset, so it moves with the seasons. In Abu Dhabi it lasts about 1h 42m around the June solstice and 1h 20m around the December solstice.
Which time zone are these Abu Dhabi timings in?
All times are local Abu Dhabi time (Asia/Dubai), which is 1.5 hours behind India (IST). Abu Dhabi does not use daylight saving time.
Are Hindu festival dates in Abu Dhabi the same as in India?
Not always. Over the next 12 months, 1 of the 35 major festivals listed here fall on a different date in Abu Dhabi than in New Delhi (Sharad Purnima). Festival dates depend on the tithi at local sunrise, midday or midnight, so the local date is the correct one to observe in Abu Dhabi.
