How Patnos's prayer times are worked out

From Patnos, the Qibla is 189° from true north. Face south to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 2,000 km (1,243 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Patnos's own coordinates (39.22°N, 42.86°E), not a national average. That is why Patnos's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

One local quirk shapes the Patnos timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Patnos lies well west inside its Istanbul time zone. So the sun peaks about 17 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 12:07 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 56m near June down to 11h 01m in December.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Patnos come from Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı, Türkiye's state religious authority. The Diyanet 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 Adilcevaz, Erciş and Ağrı. Each is only a few minutes off Patnos's clock.
