What is what time is maghrib?

Maghrib is the Islamic prayer that marks the sunset. The exact time of Maghrib varies daily and depends on the location due to the changing position of the sun. It begins at sunset and ends when the reddish glow of the sunset disappears from the horizon.

To find the precise time of Maghrib for a specific location, you need to consult:

• A local mosque or Islamic center: They will have the most accurate times based on their community's calculations.
• Islamic prayer time apps or websites: Numerous apps and websites (like Muslim Pro, Salah, etc.) provide accurate prayer times based on your GPS location. These often utilize different calculation methods, so some variation might exist between them.
• An astronomical calendar or ephemeris: This would allow for a precise calculation, but requires understanding of astronomical concepts and calculations.

It's important to note that different Islamic schools of thought might have slightly varying criteria for determining the exact moment of sunset, leading to minor differences in Maghrib prayer times.
