During the month of May, the solar path in Poznań results in a shifting schedule. The Maghrib window is moving 1 minute(s) later by tomorrow. The Islamic night in Poznań spans from sunset to dawn.

What dua is recommended at the moment of Maghrib?
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught the dua of breaking fast (which applies in Ramadan): "Dhahaba al-zama'u wabtallat al-'uruq wa thabata al-ajru in sha' Allah" — "Thirst has gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward is established, God willing" (Abu Dawud).

This year-over-year drift reflects the gradual shift of the solar year and is the reason prayer times are recomputed astronomically every day rather than read from a static table.
