Gavar prayer times overview
For Gavar 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.
Local time is applied for Gavar: the city's time zone is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Gavar coordinates: 40.3540°N and 45.1239°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.
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.
Today in Gavar the sun rises at 06:03, while Maghrib begins at 20:08. Daylight lasts 14 часов 5 минут. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Gavar begins after Maghrib at 20:08 and lasts until Fajr at 04:30. Its duration is 8 часов 22 минуты. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Gavar the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
When preparing for prayer in Gavar, it is convenient to check Fajr (04:30), Maghrib (20:08) and Isha (21:33) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
Prayer times for Gavar 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 Gavar
Each city has its own geographic coordinates, and it is precisely by them that sunrise and sunset are calculated. Because the Earth rotates and its axis is tilted, prayer times at different points cannot coincide. Latitude determines the length of day and night, longitude determines the moment the sun passes certain positions, and the time zone brings the calculation to local time. The sum of these factors makes the schedule unique for each city.
The prayer schedule in Gavar is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (04:30) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:08) — 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.
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 Gavar 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.
