Qalat

The capital of ⁨Zabul⁩ province

⁨Qalat⁩ is the capital of ⁨Zabul⁩ province. All of Afghanistan keeps one clock, Kabul's, but ⁨Qalat⁩ lies ⁨2.3⁩ degrees west of Kabul, so the sun stands highest 9 minutes later than in Kabul.

Over the year the sun rises in ⁨Qalat⁩ ⁨3 to 16 min later⁩ than in Kabul, and sets ⁨3 to 15 min later⁩.

⁨Qalat⁩ lies ⁨2.4⁩ degrees south of Kabul, so its summer days are a little shorter and its winter days a little longer.

The longest day of the year in ⁨Qalat⁩ lasts ⁨14 h 15 min⁩ (around ⁨1 Saratan⁩), the shortest ⁨10 h 3 min⁩ (around ⁨1 Jadi⁩).

Sunrise and sunset in ⁨Qalat⁩, month by month

This table holds for every year, within two minutes: the Shamsi year follows the sun, so each of its days has nearly the same sunrise and sunset every year. Times are Afghan time, for a flat horizon; behind mountains the sun shows a little later. ⁨30 Hut⁩ comes in leap years only.

The moon in ⁨Qalat⁩

The new moon here is the astronomical one, when the moon passes the sun; a Qamari month starts with the first sighting of the crescent, a day or two later. A dash: the moon doesn't rise or set that day, about once a month.

Twilight

Before sunrise and after sunset the sky is still light; it darkens as the sun sinks further below the horizon. ⁨First light⁩ and ⁨Nightfall⁩ on this page are when the sun is 12 degrees below the horizon.

These are not prayer times

Prayer times have their own rules: Fajr and Isha are reckoned from other angles of the sun, and Asr has a rule of its own. ⁨First light⁩ on this page is not the end of suhur. For prayer times, see your mosque's timetable or a religious calendar for your city.
