      Hi cowboysdude;
      Appreciate your assistance.
      I copied the example as provided, editign the lat, long & timezone to suit mine, however it still throws error.
      carefully checked the code, noted an extra line after position, removed the same.
      tried running again, with no luck.
      changed my timezone on pi to UTC from Asia/Dubai and same in to the code, still no result.
      it throws error as below;
      Starting MagicMirror: v2.1.1

          @arifms if you copied the config from @cowboysdude you are using the wrong quotes replace all quotes with either ' or ", because backticks don’t work

          Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                    as for the prayer module not working you should post in that topic and get help with that as I’m not sure why it’s not working.

                        @Gxnfr-Ali I just did …the config I posted is valid and should work :)

                        The prayer module you will have to get help in that topic for it… I don’t know that module :)

                        What exactly do you need help with? :)
