Artashar prayer times overview
The Artashar page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Artashar is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
Artashar coordinates: 40.1111°N and 44.1833°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
The daytime interval in Artashar today is 14 часов 4 минуты — from sunrise at 06:07 to Maghrib at 20:11. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Artashar the period from Maghrib (20:11) to Fajr (04:35) lasts 8 часов 24 минуты. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Artashar the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Artashar prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:35 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:11 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:36 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Artashar are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Artashar
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
We update the schedule in Artashar daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (04:35) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:11) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Artashar it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
