Chugunash prayer times overview
For Chugunash 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.
The Chugunash prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Chugunash geographic location is 52.8734°N, 87.7825°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. 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 Chugunash 15 часов 19 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:35, while the evening prayer begins at 20:54. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов 22 минуты passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:54 and the morning Fajr at 03:16. For Chugunash this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Chugunash the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
If you plan your day around the Chugunash prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:16 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:54 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:04 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Chugunash, 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 Chugunash
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 Chugunash 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 (03:16) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:54): 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 Chugunash 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.
