While working in a terminal environment, I would like to know what the current active prayer is, how much time I have left to pray, time to next prayer, and other such information.
## The research
The Birmingham Islamic Society provides tables of prayer times by month. This table can be scraped with Python Requests, then parsed with BeautifulSoup.
## The solution
Source code is available at https://github.com/trwnh/salatime
Pseudocode is as follows:
1. Get the current month, day, hour, and minute.
2. Get the page for the current month.
3. Get the times table out of this page.
4. Parse this table for a list of prayer times.
5. Parse this list for the current day's prayer times.
