Katnajur prayer times overview
For Katnajur 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 Katnajur prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Katnajur geographic location is 40.8232°N, 44.1414°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.
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 Katnajur today is 14 часов 10 минут — from sunrise at 06:04 to Maghrib at 20:14. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Katnajur 8 часов 16 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:14, while Fajr begins at 04:30. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.

Three times are especially important for daily practice in Katnajur: Fajr — 04:30, Maghrib — 20:14 and Isha — 21:41. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.

Questions about prayer times in Katnajur
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.
Prayer times in Katnajur 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 (04:30) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:14) 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 Katnajur according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
