Kara-Balta prayer times overview
The Kara-Balta page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
The Kara-Balta 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.
For Kara-Balta the coordinates 42.8167°N and 73.8500°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.
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 Kara-Balta today is 14 часов 16 минут — from sunrise at 06:02 to Maghrib at 20:18. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Kara-Balta begins after Maghrib at 20:18 and lasts until Fajr at 04:23. Its duration is 8 часов 5 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Kara-Balta the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Kara-Balta: Fajr — 04:23, Maghrib — 20:18 and Isha — 21:49. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
Prayer times for Kara-Balta 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 Kara-Balta
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 Kara-Balta 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (04:23) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:18): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
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 Kara-Balta 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.
