Panchang for Muscat — 22 May 2026

Shukla Saptami tithi, Ashlesha nakshatra · Friday · (23.588°, 58.3829°)

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

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 Muscat (23.588°, 58.3829°)'s own sunrise — 05:22 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.
