Qalaqayin prayer times overview
For Qalaqayin 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 Qalaqayin 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.
For Qalaqayin the coordinates 39.9837°N and 48.4836°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.
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.
Today in Qalaqayin 14 часов 5 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:49, while the evening prayer begins at 19:54. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Qalaqayin begins after Maghrib at 19:54 and lasts until Fajr at 04:17. Its duration is 8 часов 23 минуты. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Qalaqayin the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
When preparing for prayer in Qalaqayin, it is convenient to check Fajr (04:17), Maghrib (19:54) and Isha (21:20) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Qalaqayin 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.
Today's key reference points

Questions about prayer times in Qalaqayin
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.
The prayer schedule in Qalaqayin 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, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (04:17) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (19:54) 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 Qalaqayin according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
