How prayer times in Baghdad are calculated
Times are worked out from the Sun's position relative to Baghdad's coordinates: Fajr when the Sun is the method's set angle below the horizon, Dhuhr just after midday, Asr when shadows reach the set length, Maghrib at sunset and Isha after twilight ends or a fixed time after Maghrib.
Mosques in Baghdad may call the adhan a minute or two apart from these times, depending on their location and the local timetable. For your exact spot, open prayer times for your current location.
