Prayer Time API not accessible from Indonesia

jalubold

Hello AlAdhan Team,

We’re facing an issue where the Prayer Time API is not accessible from Indonesia on several ISPs (e.g. IM3, Indihome).

API works normally from other countries and via VPN
Issue started recently after long-term normal usage
No change in request format or traffic volume

It seems related to ISP routing or filtering.

Could you please confirm:

Any IP blocking or rate limiting affecting Indonesia?

Any recommended solution?
Thank you for your help.

Best regards,
Jalu Detya

Several Indonesian ISPs appear to have been compromised as part of the DDoS originating from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Indonesia (https://community.islamic.network/d/167-ddos-attack-and-mitigation/24).

In order to mitigate this, literally thousands of IPs have been blacklisted. I'm not sure if you have a way to reach out to the ISPs, but it would appear a bad actor has control of their servers.

For now, if you have an app or service with a dedicated IP, that can be whitelisted.

I hope this helps, inshaAllah.

Salaam,

thank you for the clarification.
Our app currently calls the API directly from users, so we don’t have a dedicated IP yet.
We’re planning to move this behind our own backend and will contact you once ready.

Thank you, inshaAllah.
