Salah times Şemdinli: 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 Şemdinli

Friday prayer (Jummah) replaces Dhuhr on Fridays. The calculated Dhuhr start in Şemdinli this Friday is 11:51; the khutbah and congregation times are set by each masjid, so check with your local mosque.

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

Şemdinli, the Sun and the clock

Şemdinli is in Hakkari and has about 19,000 people. The nearest larger city is Yüksekova, 39 km to the northwest. Şemdinli lies almost on the 45° E meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest close to 12:00 on the clock, around 12:02 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Şemdinli: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 76° above the horizon in June and only 29° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Şemdinli range from 9h 35m in December to 14h 44m in June, a difference of 5h 9m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. At 1,388 m above sea level, Şemdinli 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 Şemdinli compared with nearby cities
