What time is it in Oral right now?
The time in Oral, Kazakhstan is 6:10 pm, 18:10 on a 24 hour clock, on Saturday September 26, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the Asia/Oral rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.
Oral sits at 51.25 degrees north and 51.43 degrees east, well into the temperate belt and 5,698 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 75.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 23.6 degrees west of that line. Those 23.6 degrees are worth 94 minutes 18 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 1:26 pm rather than on the stroke of twelve.
Oral time zone and UTC offset
The IANA zone for Oral, Kazakhstan is Asia/Oral. Right now it is running at UTC+5 and the abbreviation in force is UTC+5. Oral does not change its clocks at any point in the year. The offset stays at UTC+5 in January and in July alike, so no conversion involving Oral ever needs a seasonal footnote.

Cities on Asia/Oral time
Oral is the only city in our catalogue on Asia/Oral. Other cities may share its UTC+5 offset today without sharing its rules, which is the distinction that matters the moment a clock change comes round.
Moon phase over Oral tonight
The moon is a waning gibbous tonight, 15.4 days into its cycle and about 100% lit. The next full moon falls on September 26, 2026 at 9:48 pm Oral time, and the next new moon on October 10, 2026 at 8:49 pm. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Oral clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Oral
There is no clock change scheduled in Asia/Oral within the next 400 days, so Oral stays at UTC+5 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Oral an easy city to schedule against: a meeting fixed at a given hour here holds its relationship to UTC all year, and only the other end of the call can move.
How far Oral is from other cities
Great-circle distance, computed from the coordinates rather than road mileage. The nearest city we cover to Oral is Novokuybyshevsk, Russia at 229 km, and the furthest is Punta Arenas, Chile at 16,187 km, which is 81% of the way to being exactly opposite.
| City | km | miles | Direction | Their time |

The antipode of Oral
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Oral, Kazakhstan and you come out at 51.25 degrees south, 128.57 degrees west. That point is in the South Pacific Ocean. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Punta Arenas, Chile, 3,828 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 10:10 am on Saturday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 51.25 degrees north becomes 51.25 degrees south, and 51.43 degrees east becomes 128.57 degrees west. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Oral is no exception. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC-7, roughly twelve hours from Oral, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Oral
Today the sun rises in Oral at 7:26 am and sets at 7:24 pm, giving 11 hours 57 minutes of daylight. The dedicated page for this city carries the month by month table, the longest and shortest days of 2026, the golden and blue hour bands at both ends of the day, and all three twilight stages: sunrise and sunset times in Oral.
Sun and moon in Oral today
The sun is up in Oral for 11 hours 57 minutes today, from 7:26 am to 7:24 pm. The moon sets in Oral at 6:54 am and comes up again at 7:00 pm. The next phase is the full moon on September 26, 2026. The moon is full, or as near to it as makes no difference, and the whole of the face turned towards us is lit.
| Sun | Time in Oral |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 5:34 am |
| Nautical dawn | 6:14 am |
| Civil dawn | 6:53 am |
| Sunrise | 7:26 am |
| Solar noon | 1:26 pm |
| Sunset | 7:24 pm |
| Civil dusk | 7:57 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 8:36 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 9:16 pm |
Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.
| Light band | Time in Oral | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 6:53 am to 7:06 am | 0h 13m |
| Morning golden hour | 7:06 am to 8:10 am | 1h 04m |
| Evening golden hour | 6:40 pm to 7:44 pm | 1h 04m |
| Evening blue hour | 7:44 pm to 7:57 pm | 0h 13m |
Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.
| Moon | Reading in Oral |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 7:00 pm |
| Moonset | 6:54 am |
| Phase | full moon, waxing |
| Illumination | 100% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 15.1 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 381,100 km |
Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

No hour on Saturday, September 26, 2026 is inside 9 to 5 in all 5 places, so nothing is highlighted as a shared working hour. Los Angeles and Delhi are 12 hours 30 minutes apart, which is more than the eight hour working day leaves room for. The closest is 3 of 5: from 1:00 pm in Oral it is working hours in Oral, London and Delhi, but outside them in Los Angeles and New York. A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Oral
Seven days from September 26, 2026, computed for Oral, Kazakhstan at 51.25 degrees north, 51.43 degrees east, on the clock of Asia/Oral. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Oral, Kazakhstan, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.
Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.
Qibla direction from Oral
From Oral, Kazakhstan the qibla is 201.2 degrees on a true compass, which is south-southwest, or 21.2 degrees east of due south. The Kaaba is 3,466 km away, 2,153 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Oral, Kazakhstan to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.
The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Oral, Kazakhstan before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.

It reads Asia/Oral from the time zone database, so it stays right when Oral changes its clocks, and it shows UTC+5 to every visitor wherever they are reading from. It is a plain iframe: no account, no script to install, nothing to pay.
The box needs 183 pixels of height for these settings, which is what the code above sets, and the numbers show at full size from 305 pixels of width up. Narrower than that they scale down rather than wrapping, and turning a line off makes the box shorter. The code updates with either.
