Rasht prayer times overview
For Rasht 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.
Rasht prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Rasht the coordinates 39.0287°N and 70.3745°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.
The daytime interval in Rasht today is 14 часов 2 минуты — from sunrise at 05:23 to Maghrib at 19:25. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
8 часов 28 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 19:25 and the morning Fajr at 03:53. For Rasht 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 Rasht the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Rasht: Fajr — 03:53, Maghrib — 19:25 and Isha — 20:49. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
Prayer times for Rasht 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 — 03:53: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Rasht
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 Rasht 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 (03:53) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (19:25) 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 Rasht according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
