Shenavan prayer times overview
The Shenavan page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time is applied for Shenavan: the city's time zone is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Shenavan coordinates: 40.4833°N and 44.3835°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.
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 Shenavan today is 14 часов 6 минут — from sunrise at 06:05 to Maghrib at 20:11. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Shenavan the period from Maghrib (20:11) to Fajr (04:32) lasts 8 часов 21 minute. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Shenavan the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
When preparing for prayer in Shenavan, it is convenient to check Fajr (04:32), Maghrib (20:11) and Isha (21:37) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Shenavan 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
- Fajr — 04:32: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 06:05: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 13:08: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:06: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:11: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 21:37: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Shenavan
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 Shenavan 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (04:32) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:11): 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.
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 Shenavan 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.
