Salah times Horasan: calculation method and Asr

Method: Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı method (Turkey). Asr: Standard.

Times follow Diyanet's official method: İmsak (Fajr) at 18°, Yatsı (Isha) at 17°, plus temkin, the fixed precaution minutes Diyanet adds (sunrise −7, Dhuhr +5, Asr +4, Maghrib +7). In Turkey İmsak is when the fast begins and equals Fajr here. For the places we checked, our minutes match Diyanet's published tables or differ by one minute at most, because Diyanet may use slightly different coordinates for a town. Switch the method or the Asr school below if your mosque follows another timetable.

Jummah time Horasan

Friday prayer (Jummah) replaces Dhuhr on Fridays. The calculated Dhuhr start in Horasan this Friday is 12:01; the khutbah and congregation times are set by each masjid, so check with your local mosque.

Horasan does not change its clocks; times stay on Europe/Istanbul all year. How times are calculated

Horasan, the Sun and the clock

Horasan is in Erzurum and has about 17,000 people. The nearest larger city is Erzurum, 77 km to the west. Horasan lies 2.8° west of the 45° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 11 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:11, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Horasan: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 73° above the horizon in June and only 27° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Horasan range from 9h 19m in December to 15h 1m in June, a difference of 5h 42m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. At 1,556 m above sea level, Horasan sits on high ground. Times are calculated for a level horizon; from a hilltop or a tall building sunrise can come a little earlier and sunset a little later than listed, while mountains to the east or west do the opposite.

Maghrib time Horasan compared with nearby cities

Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Horasan, calculated with the same method.
