Prayer Times in Nukus, Uzbekistan

Prayer times in Nukus are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (42.46°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Uzbekistan. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Nukus's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Uzbekistan. They are drawn from Nukus's own coordinates (42.4586°N, 59.6058°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Nukus's prayer times are worked out

From Nukus, the Qibla is 224° from true north. Face southwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,977 km (1,850 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Nukus's own coordinates (42.46°N, 59.61°E), not a national average. That is why Nukus's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Nukus timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Nukus lies well west inside its Samarkand time zone. So the sun peaks about 70 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:00 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 33m near June down to 10h 46m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Nukus come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Xo‘jayli Shahri, Daşoguz and Oltinko‘l. Each is only a few minutes off Nukus's clock.

Two Asr times are in use in Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan is overwhelmingly Hanafi — mosques announce the later, second-shadow Asr, so this page shows both times. The time shown above for Nukus is the standard reckoning — 4:33 PM. The Hanafi time today is 5:28 PM. Follow whichever your mosque announces; you can make Hanafi the default in the settings above.

Who sets prayer times in Uzbekistan

Prayer times in Uzbekistan are administered by the Muslim Board of Uzbekistan (the Muftiate), which approves the annual calendar the country's mosques follow. This page applies the Muslim World League parameters (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°) to this city's own coordinates. The official Uzbek table may therefore differ by a few minutes. Treat your local mosque's announcement as final. Uzbekistan is deeply Hanafi, the homeland of Imam al-Bukhari and al-Tirmidhi. Asr is therefore called on the second-shadow reckoning. Since 2016 the country has seen a visible revival of public religious life. The clock stays on UTC+5 all year, with no daylight saving.

Samarkand and Tashkent: the architecture of faith

Few countries carry Islamic architecture like Uzbekistan. Samarkand's Registan anchors a UNESCO World Heritage ensemble, its Ulugh Beg Madrasa begun in 1417. The Bibi-Khanym Mosque rose in 1399-1404 on Timur's orders, after his Indian campaign. It was named for his senior wife. In Tashkent, the Hazrati Imam complex long displayed one of the oldest surviving Qur'an manuscripts. This is the Samarkand Kufic Qur'an, which tradition holds was the caliph Uthman's own copy. In late 2025 the manuscript moved to the city's new Center for Islamic Civilization. Bukhara, Khiva and Shakhrisabz complete a constellation of sacred cities unmatched in Central Asia.

That is the congregation, called a few minutes after each prayer starts.

Nukus Prayer Times — FAQ

What direction is Qibla from Nukus?

The Qibla direction from Nukus, Uzbekistan is 224° from true north. Face southwest toward Mecca, Saudi Arabia, which lies 2,977 km (1,850 miles) away.

How long is the fast in Nukus?

The longest daily fast in Nukus is about 17h 33m, around June. The shortest is about 10h 46m, in December. That is a swing of 6h 47m across the year, set by the city's latitude of 42.46°N. Both are measured from Fajr to Maghrib with the Muslim World League method.

Why does my mosque in Uzbekistan announce a later Asr?

Because Uzbekistan follows the Hanafi school. That school begins Asr when an object's shadow reaches twice its length, roughly an hour later than the standard reckoning. This page shows both times. The Muslim Board of Uzbekistan approves the official annual calendar, so its printed table may also differ by a few minutes from this page's calculation.
