Sumqayit prayer times overview
The Sumqayit 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 is applied for Sumqayit: the city's time zone is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Sumqayit coordinates: 40.5897°N and 49.6686°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.
Today in Sumqayit the sun rises at 06:32, while Maghrib begins at 18:34. Daylight lasts 12 часов 2 минуты. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Sumqayit 10 часов 37 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 18:34, while Fajr begins at 05:11. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Sumqayit prayer times change gradually: Fajr begins later, while Maghrib begins a little earlier.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Sumqayit: Fajr — 05:11, Maghrib — 18:34 and Isha — 19:49. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Sumqayit, while the Asr time is determined according to the Hanafi madhhab. This allows the schedule to be used as a daily reference for the obligatory prayers.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 05:11: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 06:32: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:33: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 16:48: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 18:34: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 19:49: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Sumqayit
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
The prayer schedule in Sumqayit 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 (05:11) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (18:34) 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 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 Sumqayit 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.
