Please add Sof Zman Tefila and Shema according to the Magen Avraham

4 years ago • updated by 4 years ago • 2

I have been having trouble calculating the Magen Avraham's times based on Alos and Tzeis returned by this API. Please add those two times into the API natively. I believe a lot of people will find it helpful.

We've recently completed this feature request.

https://www.hebcal.com/home/1663/zmanim-halachic-times-api

In addition to previous output there are now two new outputs

sofZmanShmaMGA – Latest Shema (MGA)

Sunrise plus 3 halachic hours, according to Magen Avraham

sofZmanTfillaMGA – Latest Shacharit (MGA)

Sunrise plus 4 halachic hours, according to Magen Avraham

The source code that generates the new times is here:

And if you'd like to see an example of the output:
