## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Islamic Prayer Times Worldwide 🕌

**Monthly prayer-time calendars for any city in the world** — Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha plus Imsak, midnight, Hijri dates and Islamic holidays. Choose your calculation method (Muslim World League, ISNA, Umm Al-Qura, Diyanet Turkey, Egyptian, UOIF France...) and Asr school (Standard/Hanafi).

No login, no API key. Powered by the public AlAdhan calculation service.

### What you get (per city × day)

```json
{
  "city": "Istanbul",
  "country": "Turkey",
  "date": "2026-08-14",
  "weekday": "Friday",
  "fajr": "04:28", "sunrise": "06:06", "dhuhr": "13:14",
  "asr": "17:04", "maghrib": "20:11", "isha": "21:42",
  "imsak": "04:18", "midnight": "01:09", "utcOffset": "+03",
  "hijriDate": "01-03-1448", "hijriMonth": "Rabī al-awwal",
  "holidays": [],
  "method": "Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı, Turkey"
}
```

One run = 30/31 records per city per month. 3 cities × 1 month ≈ 93 records.

### Use cases

- **Mosque & community websites** — publish monthly timetables automatically
- **Muslim lifestyle apps** — feed accurate, method-correct times for any city
- **AI agents & chatbots** — answer "when is Maghrib in <city>?" with structured data
- **Digital signage** — schedule daily refresh via Apify Schedules, push to your screen/CMS
- **Ramadan products** — Imsak/Iftar calendars per city, any year

### Input

- `locations`: `[{"city": "London", "country": "United Kingdom"}, ...]`
- `monthsAhead`: 1-12 months starting this month
- `method`: calculation method id (3 MWL default, 13 Diyanet, 2 ISNA, 4 Umm Al-Qura...)
- `school`: Asr — 0 Standard, 1 Hanafi

### Pricing

Pay per event: you are charged only per day-record returned — no subscriptions, no minimums.

### Notes

- Times come from the AlAdhan public calculation API (astronomical calculation, not scraping).
- Always verify with your local mosque for congregational times.
- Issues? Open an issue — response < 24h.

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,gmpsignal/islamic-prayer-times-worldwide-monthly-calendars"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
