Pradosh Vrat 2026 in UAE

Every date in 2026 for Dubai, on its own clock, with the other cities in UAE noted where they keep a different day.

Pradosh Vrat is kept for Shiva on Trayodashi, the thirteenth day of each fortnight, twice a month, with the worship done in pradosh, the twilight after sunset. It takes its name from the weekday: Soma Pradosh on a Monday, Bhauma Pradosh on a Tuesday and Shani Pradosh on a Saturday.

How the dates are worked out

Pradosh Vrat is kept on the evening Trayodashi covers pradosh, taken as the 144 minutes after sunset; when it covers pradosh on two evenings, the one it covers longer. The puja time shown is the part of pradosh in which Trayodashi still runs, calculated for the city chosen.

Questions

Why is the Pradosh puja done at twilight?

Pradosh, the time just after sunset, is held to be when Shiva is most easily pleased; the vrat is kept through the day and the puja done in this window.

What is Shani Pradosh?

A Pradosh Vrat that falls on a Saturday, kept also for relief from Saturn’s difficulties, such as during Sade Sati.
