Katran prayer times overview
For Katran 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.
Katran prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 3 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Katran geographic location is 39.8443°N, 70.0147°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.
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 Katran today is 14 часов 3 минуты — from sunrise at 06:24 to Maghrib at 20:27. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Katran begins after Maghrib at 20:27 and lasts until Fajr at 04:52. Its duration is 8 часов 25 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Katran the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Katran prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:52 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:27 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:52 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Katran 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.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 04:52: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

- Dhuhr — 13:26: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:23: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:27: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.

Questions about prayer times in Katran
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 Katran 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 (04:52) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:27) — 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 Katran 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.
