Dhaka prayer times overview
For Dhaka it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
The Dhaka prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 3 часа ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Dhaka geographic location is 23.8103°N, 90.4125°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
The prayer schedule does not depend only on the region's official time. It is affected by the sun's altitude above the horizon, so in neighbouring cities the Fajr, Dhuhr and Maghrib values may differ. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
The daytime interval in Dhaka today is 13 часов 8 минут — from sunrise at 05:30 to Maghrib at 18:38. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Dhaka begins after Maghrib at 18:38 and lasts until Fajr at 04:08. Its duration is 9 часов 30 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Dhaka the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Dhaka: Fajr — 04:08, Maghrib — 18:38 and Isha — 20:00. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
Prayer times for Dhaka 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 Dhaka
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 Dhaka 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (04:08) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (18:38) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
It is better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Dhaka it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
