Chernitsk prayer times overview
For Chernitsk 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 Chernitsk: the city's time zone is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Chernitsk coordinates: 53.2086°N and 83.5528°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
The prayer schedule does not depend only on the region's official time. It is affected by the sun's altitude above the horizon, so in neighbouring cities the Fajr, Dhuhr and Maghrib values may differ. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Chernitsk 15 часов 18 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:52, while the evening prayer begins at 21:10. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Chernitsk begins after Maghrib at 21:10 and lasts until Fajr at 03:33. Its duration is 6 часов 23 минуты. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Chernitsk the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.

Questions about prayer times in Chernitsk
The prayer schedule directly depends on three factors: geographic latitude, longitude and the time zone. The sun rises and sets at its own time at every point on the globe, so the moments of Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha inevitably differ even between closely located localities. The greater the difference in latitude, the more noticeable the difference in the morning and evening prayer times. This is precisely why the schedule is drawn up to match the coordinates of each city.
Prayer times in Chernitsk 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.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (03:33) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (21:10) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
It is not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Chernitsk according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
