Gantiadi prayer times overview
The Gantiadi page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time is applied for Gantiadi: the city's time zone is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
For Gantiadi the coordinates 43.3811°N and 40.0794°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. 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 Gantiadi today is 14 часов 21 minute — from sunrise at 06:15 to Maghrib at 20:36. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Gantiadi the period from Maghrib (20:36) to Fajr (04:34) lasts 7 часов 58 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Gantiadi the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Gantiadi: Fajr — 04:34, Maghrib — 20:36 and Isha — 22:09. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.

Questions about prayer times in Gantiadi
The prayer schedule directly depends on three factors: geographic latitude, longitude and the time zone. The sun rises and sets at its own time at every point on the globe, so the moments of Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha inevitably differ even between closely located localities. The greater the difference in latitude, the more noticeable the difference in the morning and evening prayer times. This is precisely why the schedule is drawn up to match the coordinates of each city.
Prayer times in Gantiadi are updated daily. This is related to the constant shifting of the sunrise and sunset moments following the Earth's orbit around the sun. The changes are especially noticeable during the transitional seasons — spring and autumn — when the day length changes fastest, sometimes by several minutes per day. For the schedule to remain accurate, it should be checked daily, not once a week.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (04:34) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:36) 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.
It is not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Gantiadi according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
