Kurtan prayer times overview
For Kurtan 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 Kurtan 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.
Kurtan geographic location is 40.9572°N, 44.5562°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.
According to today's schedule for Kurtan, the sun rises at 06:03, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:12. 14 часов 9 минут passes between these events. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Kurtan begins after Maghrib at 20:12 and lasts until Fajr at 04:28. Its duration is 8 часов 16 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Kurtan the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Kurtan prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:28 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:12 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:40 the start of the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Kurtan
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.
We update the schedule in Kurtan 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 (04:28) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:12) — 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 Kurtan 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.
