How prayer times are calculated in Kazakhstan

Pages for Kazakhstan use the Muslim World League method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon. Times are shown in the local time of each city (UTC+5). In the capital Astana, Fajr is about 1:45 AM and Maghrib 8:33 PM around 21 June, whereas around 21 December Fajr comes at 6:12 AM and Maghrib at 4:09 PM. Daylight there ranges from 7 h 53 min to 16 h 35 min.

Our cities in Kazakhstan stretch from Shalkar in the west to Zaysan in the east, and from Petropavl in the north to Zhetysay in the south. With such a distance, the sun reaches its zenith in Zaysan about 144 minutes before Shalkar, which is one reason the country uses several time zones. Day length also varies between north and south, most of all in summer and winter, so the timetable of Astana is no substitute for that of your own city.

Ramadan in Kazakhstan

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected on 8 February 2027), the fast in Astana lasts about 11 h 28 min at the start of the month and 13 h 16 min at the end, with imsak at 5:38 AM and iftar at 5:17 PM on the first day. Times differ from one city to another, so open your city’s page for the exact imsak and iftar times.

To reach your city quickly, type its name in the search box at the top of the page, or go through the regions above. On every page you will find today’s times with a countdown, a monthly timetable you can print and links to nearby cities.
