Karakert prayer times overview
The Karakert 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 Karakert 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.
Karakert coordinates: 40.2445°N and 43.8223°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.
Karakert prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
Today in Karakert the sun rises at 06:07, while Maghrib begins at 20:14. Daylight lasts 14 часов 7 минут. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
8 часов 20 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:14 and the morning Fajr at 04:34. For Karakert this is an important reference for planning night prayers. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Karakert the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Karakert prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:34 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:14 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:40 the start of the night prayer.
The Karakert prayer schedule is calculated according to the method of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Russian Federation (SAM RF), using the Hanafi madhhab to determine the Asr time. The data is updated daily and takes into account the city's exact geographic location.

Questions about prayer times in Karakert
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.
We update the schedule in Karakert 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 (04:34) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:14) — 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 Karakert 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.
