Panchang for Doha — 16 September 2026

Shukla Panchami tithi, Vishakha nakshatra · Wednesday · (25.2854°, 51.531°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Partial (3/4)Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi)Shaka Samvat 1948Simha (Shravana)

A pañcāṅga is the day's five limbs — tithi, vāra, nakṣatra, yoga and karaṇa. All five come from the real positions of the Sun and Moon and change through the day, so they are reckoned from Doha (25.2854°, 51.531°)'s own sunrise — 05:20 AM here today rather than from a national average. Below are today's five with the time each ends, and then the day's auspicious and inauspicious windows.
