How are prayer times calculated in Datong?

From the sun's position (astronomical calculation) at Datong's latitude and longitude, using the MuslimWorldLeague method. No external service. Within a large city the time can vary by a minute from one edge to another.

When does Maghrib prayer time start?

Maghrib starts at sunset. In Datong today: 17:57.

When does Fajr prayer time start?

Fajr starts at dawn (the first light in the east). In Datong today: 05:01. The exact minute depends on the twilight angle a community follows.

How are Suhoor and Iftar times determined during Ramadan?

Suhoor ends when Fajr begins, and Iftar (breaking the fast) begins at Maghrib — the same times shown in the table for that day.

What's the difference between Hanafi and Shafi Asr calculation?

Under the Shafi school (also Maliki and Hanbali), Asr begins when an object's shadow equals its length; under the Hanafi school, when the shadow is twice the length — i.e. later. The time here uses the method's default.
