Shaki prayer times overview
The Shaki prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time in Shaki is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
Shaki coordinates: 41.1919°N and 47.1706°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
Shaki prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
The daytime interval in Shaki today is 14 часов 10 минут — from sunrise at 05:52 to Maghrib at 20:02. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
8 часов 14 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:02 and the morning Fajr at 04:16. For Shaki 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 Shaki the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
When preparing for prayer in Shaki, it is convenient to check Fajr (04:16), Maghrib (20:02) and Isha (21:30) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
Prayer times for Shaki 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 — 04:16: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 05:52: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:57: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 17:57: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:02: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 21:30: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Shaki
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 Shaki 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (04:16) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:02): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
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 Shaki according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
