# Function: getMscIsha()
> **getMscIsha**(`date`, `latitude`, `shafaq?`): `number`
Defined in: [getMSC.ts:133](https://github.com/acamarata/pray-calc/blob/4227afc2c3993234794b3a1a561c080edc6d4d4e/src/getMSC.ts#L133)
Compute Isha offset in minutes after sunset using the MCW algorithm.
Three Shafaq modes:
- 'general': blend that reduces hardship at high latitudes (default)
- 'ahmer': based on disappearance of redness (shafaq ahmer)
- 'abyad': based on disappearance of whiteness (shafaq abyad), later
## Parameters
### date
`Date`
Observer's local date
### latitude
`number`
Observer latitude in decimal degrees
### shafaq?
`ShafaqMode` = `'general'`
Twilight type: 'general' | 'ahmer' | 'abyad'
## Returns
`number`
Minutes after sunset for Isha
## Example
```ts
const offset = getMscIsha(new Date('2024-06-21'), 40.7128, 'general');
// offset ≈ 84
```
