Iftar time in Nahiyat Ghammas is based on the astronomical sunset at 31.7°N, 44.6°E. This timing already accounts for atmospheric refraction, marking the moment the sun appears to dip below the horizon.
Local Confirmation: While our Iftar times are accurate, we recommend checking with your local mosque for any community-specific adjustments or moon sighting variations.
Today's fast in Nahiyat Ghammas lasts 11h 46m, which is approximately 60 minutes longer than at the start of Ramadan. Fasting hours are changing moderately as the season progresses.
At 31.7°N and 22m elevation in the Baghdad timezone, Nahiyat Ghammas is in the temperate zone, where seasonal daylight changes are noticeable. During Ramadan in spring, fasting hours increase by about 3 minutes each day. Your elevation adds roughly 0.1 minutes to sunset timing.
By mid-Ramadan (day 15), you'll have gained an extra 45 minutes of fasting compared to the first day. Compared to Ash Shamiyah at 32.0°N, this results in about 1 minutes of difference. These gradual daily changes are a defining feature of fasting in Nahiyat Ghammas.
Nahiyat Ghammas's sunset is approximately 1 minute later than Ad Diwaniyah, primarily due to longitude differences between the cities.
Nahiyat Ghammas's sunset is approximately 1 minute earlier than An Najaf, primarily due to longitude differences between the cities.
Nahiyat Ghammas's sunset is approximately 3 minutes later than As Samawah, primarily due to longitude differences between the cities.

Tomorrow's fast will be approximately 3 minutes longer than today in Nahiyat Ghammas, following the seasonal daylight pattern at 31.7° latitude. This daily progression is characteristic of Nahiyat Ghammas's subtropical latitude position, where seasonal astronomical shifts directly affect fasting duration throughout Ramadan.
Earth's atmosphere bends light, causing the sun to appear slightly higher on the horizon than its actual position. This atmospheric refraction effect is already accounted for in our calculations, giving you the precise moment when the sun appears to cross below the horizon.
At 22m above sea level, Nahiyat Ghammas's elevation affects when sunset occurs. Higher elevations see the sunset slightly later than lower areas. This elevation adjustment is included in all our calculations.
Iftar times are calculated using precise astronomical algorithms from NOAA, based on Nahiyat Ghammas's exact location (31.74°N, 44.61°E), timezone (Asia/Baghdad), and the current season to determine accurate sunset times throughout Ramadan.

Nahiyat Ghammas and Ash Shamiyah share nearly identical sunset times due to their close proximity. The primary cause is the longitude difference between the cities — roughly 4 minutes of time difference per degree of longitude. Nahiyat Ghammas is at latitude 31.74°, while Ash Shamiyah is at latitude 31.96°. Even small differences in latitude and elevation create measurable shifts in when sunset occurs.
The Umm al-Qura 18.5° method is most commonly used by mosques in Nahiyat Ghammas. However, the best method for you depends on your local mosque or Islamic authority. We provide multiple standards on this page: Umm al-Qura 18.5°, ISNA 15°, Umm al-Qura 18.5°, and Diyanet 20°. Check with your mosque to confirm which they recommend, then use that method from the options available above.
