Following the sunrise times shown on Google
Q: I normally refer to the sunrise timing from the salah timings in Dubai which I Google. However sometimes there are differences of sunrise timings when compared with calendars. Some say 6:19, some state 6:17, some say 6:15.
So if I finished my Fajr Salah at 6:17am, which exact time should I use. I get confused which table should I refer to.
