Chumikan prayer times overview
For Chumikan 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 Chumikan prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 7 часов ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
For Chumikan the coordinates 54.7182°N and 135.3157°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr 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.
According to today's schedule for Chumikan, the sun rises at 05:17, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:51. 15 часов 34 минуты passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Chumikan 6 часов 11 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:51, while Fajr begins at 03:02. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Chumikan the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Chumikan: Fajr — 03:02, Maghrib — 20:51 and Isha — 22:58. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
Prayer times for Chumikan 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 Chumikan
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.
We update the schedule in Chumikan 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 (03:02) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:51): 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Chumikan it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
