Bilibino prayer times overview
For Bilibino it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
Local time is applied for Bilibino: the city's time zone is 9 часов ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
For Bilibino the coordinates 68.0546°N and 166.4372°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. Such a latitude requires special attention when calculating Fajr and Isha during periods of very bright nights or polar phenomena.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. For high latitudes, special rules for adjusting the calculation are applied when necessary.
Today in Bilibino the sun rises at 03:36, while Maghrib begins at 22:22. Daylight lasts 18 часов 46 минут. This is a very long daylight day: it is especially important to monitor the Isha and Fajr times carefully.
3 часа 50 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 22:22 and the morning Fajr at 02:12. For Bilibino this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Bilibino, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
For Bilibino the high-latitude adjustment is important: during a very long day or a short night, the usual astronomical calculation may need correction.
If you plan your day around the Bilibino prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:12 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 22:22 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:40 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Bilibino, while the Asr time is determined according to the Hanafi madhhab. This allows the schedule to be used as a daily reference for the obligatory prayers.

Questions about prayer times in Bilibino
Each city has its own geographic coordinates, and it is precisely by them that sunrise and sunset are calculated. Because the Earth rotates and its axis is tilted, prayer times at different points cannot coincide. Latitude determines the length of day and night, longitude determines the moment the sun passes certain positions, and the time zone brings the calculation to local time. The sum of these factors makes the schedule unique for each city.
Prayer times in Bilibino are updated daily. This is related to the constant shifting of the sunrise and sunset moments following the Earth's orbit around the sun. The changes are especially noticeable during the transitional seasons — spring and autumn — when the day length changes fastest, sometimes by several minutes per day. For the schedule to remain accurate, it should be checked daily, not once a week.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:12) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (22:22): 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.
Because Bilibino is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
