islam

islam is an Islamic library for Rust. It is a direct port of PyIslam with a slight change in the API part.

Why?

I have always got panic! working with salah. Previously, I have a good experience with PyIslam. In my case, it is very precise and has a simple algorithm. Nowadays, I work a lot with Rust. So here it is, islam is born!

Features

• Hijri date
• Prayer times

Usage

Getting Prayer Times

use islam::salah::{Config, Location, Madhab, Method, PrayerSchedule};

let central_jakarta = Location::new(6.1, 106.49);
let config = Config::new().with(Method::Singapore, Madhab::Shafi);
let prayer_times = PrayerSchedule::new(central_jakarta)?
    .with_config(config)
    .calculate()?;

First, you need to specify Location with latitude, and longitude as parameters. Then choose a calculation method such Singapore. Other methods are available in the docs. There are also madhab configurations that you can choose from.

Getting Hijri Date

let date = NaiveDate::from_ymd_opt(2021, 4, 9)
let from_gregorian = HijriDate::from_gregorian(date, 0);
println!(
    "From gregorian: {}-{}-{}",
    from_gregorian.year, from_gregorian.month, from_gregorian.day,
);

from_gregorian accepts Date and correction value as parameters.
