Zangakatun prayer times overview
The Zangakatun prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
The Zangakatun 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.
Zangakatun geographic location is 39.8223°N, 45.0417°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. 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 Zangakatun today is 14 часов 5 минут — from sunrise at 06:03 to Maghrib at 20:08. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Zangakatun the period from Maghrib (20:08) to Fajr (04:31) lasts 8 часов 23 минуты. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Zangakatun the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Zangakatun prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:31 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:08 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:33 the start of the night prayer.
The Zangakatun 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 — 04:31: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 06:03: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 13:06: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:04: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:08: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.

Questions about prayer times in Zangakatun
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 Zangakatun 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (04:31) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:08) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
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 Zangakatun 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.
