About Prayer Times in Taraz
Prayer times shown here are calculated for Taraz using the Muslim World League method, a widely used standard across Central Asia and beyond. The city observes Kazakhstan time (Asia/Almaty time zone) and does not change clocks for daylight saving, so the relationship between the listed times and the position of the sun stays consistent through the year. Because Taraz lies at about 42.9 degrees north latitude, day length varies noticeably with the seasons: summer brings long days with an early Fajr and a late Isha, while winter days are short, drawing the morning and evening prayers closer together and shifting Maghrib earlier in the afternoon. The qibla, the direction of prayer toward the Kaaba in Mecca, faces roughly southwest from Taraz at a bearing of about 241 degrees. The live table above reflects each day's exact timings, which move gradually as the seasons change.
