Asr Timing in Kurgan

For today, May 25, 2026, the Asr prayer in Kurgan starts at 16:59. By tomorrow, the time will shift to 17:00, marking a difference of 1 minute later due to the solar cycle.

Asr is the afternoon prayer. The timing is based on the length of shadows, marking a vital checkpoint between midday and sunset.

Because Kurgan is located at a high latitude of 55.45ยฐ N, it encounters the 'Persistent Twilight' phenomenon during the summer. At this latitude, the sun does not descend far enough (18 degrees) below the horizon. Consequently, Asr is calculated using the 'Nearest Latitude' or 'One-Seventh' rule. During the month of May, the solar path in Kurgan results in a shifting schedule. The Asr window is moving 1 minute(s) later by tomorrow. The Islamic night in Kurgan spans from sunset to dawn. Islamic Midnight is at 22:46, while the 'Last Third' of the nightโ€”the ideal time for Tahajjudโ€”starts at 23:23.

Asr Prayer in Kurgan โ€” Frequently Asked Questions

Answers refreshed daily based on today's actual Asr time, sunrise, sunset, and Hijri date in Kurgan.

What time is Asr today in Kurgan?
Asr in Kurgan, Russia begins today (Monday, May 25, 2026) at 16:59 local time (Asia/Yekaterinburg) and continues until Maghrib at 20:57.
What is the difference between Hanafi Asr and Shafi'i Asr time?

The figure shown (16:59) follows the calculation method configured for this page.
When does the Asr window end?
Asr ends at sunset (Maghrib). The Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ said: "Whoever catches one rakat of Asr before sunset has caught Asr" (Bukhari). In Kurgan today, that gives a window from 16:59 to 20:57.
Why is Asr particularly emphasized in the Qur'an?
Surah Al-Baqarah 2:238 says: "Guard strictly your prayers, especially the middle prayer." Many scholars identify this verse as referring to Asr, which falls in the middle of the working day when distractions are highest and missing the prayer is easiest.
How does today's Asr time in Kurgan compare to the same date last year?
On this same date one year ago, Asr in Kurgan was at 16:59 local time โ€” identical to today's 16:59. Year-over-year drift is sometimes zero when the leap-year alignment cancels out the typical solar shift.
How many rakat is Asr prayer?
Asr prayer consists of 4 Sunnah, 4 Fard (8 rakat in total). This breakdown follows the standard Sunni convention as taught by the Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ.
What direction is the Qibla from Kurgan for Asr?
From Kurgan, the Qibla bearing toward the Kaaba in Mecca is approximately 220ยฐ measured clockwise from true north. The same direction applies to every prayer of the day โ€” only the time of Asr changes daily.
What is the spiritual significance of Asr?
Guard strictly your prayers, especially the Middle Prayer (Asr). (Quran 2:238)
Can I delay Asr to combine with Maghrib?
No. Asr and Maghrib are not among the prayers classical jurisprudence allows to be combined. Dhuhr/Asr and Maghrib/Isha can be combined under specific conditions, but Asr must always be completed before sunset.
