Daily zmanim

Halachic times follow the sun: dawn, sunrise, latest Shema and Tefillah, midday, earliest Mincha, Plag HaMincha, sunset and nightfall.

Candle lighting

Many communities light Shabbat candles about 18 minutes before sunset; in Jerusalem the custom is 40 minutes. Follow your local custom.
