Altynzhar prayer times overview
The Altynzhar page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Altynzhar is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
For Altynzhar the coordinates 46.2754°N and 48.5063°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
Today in Altynzhar 14 часов 37 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:33, while the evening prayer begins at 20:10. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Altynzhar 7 часов 34 минуты passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:10, while Fajr begins at 03:44. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Altynzhar the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Altynzhar prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:44 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:10 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:50 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Altynzhar are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Altynzhar
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
We update the schedule in Altynzhar daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (03:44) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:10): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
It is better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Altynzhar it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
