Prayer Times in Qyzylorda, Kazakhstan

Praying in Qyzylorda

There are around 10 hours and 19 minutes between sunrise and sunset in Qyzylorda today. Prayer times are anchored to the sun rather than the clock, so as that figure grows and shrinks across the year, every time below moves with it.

Qibla from Qyzylorda

Turn south-west, about 230°, for the qibla. The distance works out to about 3,505 kilometres, or 2,178 miles. If you are marking a permanent direction in a room, check true north rather than trusting a phone compass alone.

How much the times move

The yearly swing here is substantial. In June, Fajr in Qyzylorda can fall in the small hours with Isha holding off until late evening; in December the whole day from Fajr to Isha is over in a short span. Check the monthly timetable rather than assuming last season's times still hold.

Other Kazakhstan timetables

There are 3 more Kazakhstan cities here, and each has its own times rather than sharing Qyzylorda's. The list under the timetable below will take you to any of them.

A note on the method used

Calculations come from Umm Al-Qura University, Makkah. The disagreement between methods lives almost entirely in Fajr and Isha, where the sun is below the horizon and the chosen angle decides the time. For Asr this page uses the Hanafi position — later in the day than the majority view. If the mosque down the road announces something a few minutes different, pray with the mosque.
