Prayer Times in Ganja — November 2026

Reading the November 2026 table

If you are in Ganja today (Monday, 31 August 2026), the five daily prayers fall at 04:43 (Fajr), 12:55 (Dhuhr), 17:34 (Asr), 19:30 (Maghrib) and 21:00 (Isha). Times are computed from the city’s coordinates, the Asia/Baku timezone (UTC+4), the Muslim World League convention and Hanafi (double-shadow) Asr.

Coordinates for Ganja: 40.6828, 46.3606. Time zone Asia/Baku (UTC+4) already includes daylight saving when the zone observes it, so you do not add or subtract an hour by hand in August. The listed population is about 330,000 people.

For the latitude of Ganja, day length changes clearly from winter to summer. In August 2026 sunrise is 06:20 and Maghrib is 19:30. Dhuhr (12:55) sits near local solar noon. That seasonal swing is the reason a UK timetable cannot be reused in Azerbaijan, and why this page is calculated from Ganja’s own coordinates rather than a national average.

Calculation for Ganja starts from Muslim World League. Changing the method moves Fajr and Isha by several minutes; changing Asr madhhab moves only Asr. Asr is shown in the Hanafi manner (shadow factor 2), which is the usual printed convention in much of South and Central Asia. If a local mosque publishes a different Fajr or Isha angle, pick that method in the selector or apply a minute offset.

Travellers through Ganja should remember that airport and hotel clocks follow civil time, which this timetable already uses. Maghrib is tied to sunset at the city’s coordinates, not to the time a flight lands.

Qibla from Ganja is 198.0° from true north (SSW), about 2,229 km from the Kaaba in Makkah. A phone compass is only as good as its calibration; once you have identified a wall that faces that bearing, you can mark it and stop re-measuring every day. Magnetic declination is not applied on this page — the figure is geographic, which is what a qibla diagram expects.

Nearby timetables: prayer times in Baku (298 km), prayer times in Yerevan (166 km), prayer times in Tbilisi (172 km), prayer times in Makhachkala (273 km), prayer times in Tabriz (288 km). Neighbouring cities share almost the same latitude, so Fajr and Isha usually differ by one to four minutes — mostly longitude and the minute the time zone snaps to.

This page is an astronomical estimate, not a fatwa and not a substitute for the announcement in your local masjid. Some congregations publish a one- to three-minute precaution. If your mosque uses a different Fajr angle, switch the method above or apply a manual minute offset. For personal prayer, a coordinate-based calculation for Ganja is typically accurate to one or two minutes on a clear horizon.
