Why is Karwa Chauth on Sun 7 Oct in Diffa?

Karwa Chauth is on Sun 7 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:30 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 03:50 Sun.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:26. Chaturthi: 03:50 to 00:46 Mon.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 03:50 on Sun 7 Oct to 00:46 on Mon 8 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sun 7 Oct, at 20:26.

The rule

Kartika Krishna Chaturthi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Chaturthi (amanta)

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise.

Smarta
the night whose moonrise Chaturthi holds; when it touches both, the earlier; when neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
