Short answers about Ja'fari prayer times.

What does Shari'i midnight mean?

On a prayer timetable, midnight is a point in the night worked out from Maghrib and dawn, not the clock turning 12:00.

Why is Shia Maghrib after sunset?

Most prayer apps put Maghrib at sunset. Ja'fari practice waits until the eastern redness has passed overhead, usually 15 to 30 minutes later.
