Adhan automation (أذان التلقائي) using Home Assistant and Google Home Mini

[Akbar]

Thanks for the response @chintito4ever. Yes both the nest mini and Audio connected to the same wifi as HA.However it is still unfindable. I have a new Nest Audio and Nest Mini which are not findable as an Entity or as a Devices.

I do have a Sonos Beam speaker and Google Chromecast. Those are findable as entities without any issues. I am missing anything here?

as_timestamp(strptime(states("sensor.time_date"), "%H:%M, %Y-%m-%d")) == as_timestamp(strptime(states("sensor.islamic_prayer_time_fajr"), "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S"))

Hi @msahar and brothers,
I am having the same configuration and automation content but it is not triggering the azan automatically. Manually, I can able to trigger and it plays without issue.

Attaching the states screenshots. The sensor for dhuhr is mentioned as ‘2022-12-05T17:08:00+00:00’. I am sure this is not the correct time for dhuhr in North America (Toronto). Similarly for all the other prayers. Is that anything configured incorrectly? Please help.

[chintito4ever]

If you go to Settings>Automation>Your Adhan Automation>Traces it should show the logs why it failed. Can you see what your traces show?

[Akbar]

Thanks for the response @chintito4ever. I am not anything when clicked the trace. Is that any other place i need to look at?

[Akbar]

I am able to enable the tracing after restart of HA instance. Now by manually triggering the automation for Fajr and All four Adan, Trace is available. PFB.

However, I am still seeing the sensor times are incorrect for the Toronto, Canada location. Do you see any issues below?

[Akbar]

Dear brothers,
The automation is working for me now. I have updated my automations.yaml file as follows.

Based on the logs and suggestion from following threads, I am able to resolve it. Islamic Prayer Times issue with the sensor integration after Core update - does not support platform setup · Issue #73201 · home-assistant/core · GitHub

Salaam Brothers,

I have the automation working perfectly minus one small thing. The Islamic Prayer Time integration doesn’t have a calculation for the UK, the closest is MWL but it isn’t correct. Is there a way I can correct this without having to change anything constantly.

Thanks

Can you help me with configuration and automation with diyanet Netherlands files?

Can you please put more clarification about what you need?

are you using my addo? if yes there is a description how to configure that

[Zotech]

I’ve been trying to get your addon to work but I’m getting unknown when I remove == states(‘sensor.time’) and always false if I dont.

If I run http://localhost:1453/api/dailyPrayerTimes/11421 I get correct results

{"regionId":11421,"region":"Melbourne","prayerTimes":[{"date":"23.03.2023","fajr":"05:58","sun":"07:18","dhuhur":"13:32","asr":"16:56","maghrib":"19:36","isha":"20:51"},{"date":"24.03.2023","fajr":"05:59","sun":"07:19","dhuhur":"13:32","asr":"16:55","maghrib":"19:34","isha":"20:49"}]}

hi may i know where can i get the “ID” from?

[123 (Taras)]

The value of the automation’s id option can be whatever you want, as long as it’s different from any other automation.

[Himdola]

Did you have found any solution? I am looking a solution to see on an separate sensor the next Prayer TIme.

[Himdola]

i have now problem with fetching data and i think something breaks now with REST api. The sensors says unknown now. By me nothing was changed. What can be the problem?
