Dudinka prayer times overview
For Dudinka 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.
Dudinka prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Dudinka the coordinates 69.4058°N and 86.1778°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 Dudinka 19 часов 26 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 03:37, while the evening prayer begins at 23:03. This is a very long daylight day: it is especially important to monitor the Isha and Fajr times carefully.
In Dudinka the period from Maghrib (23:03) to Fajr (02:24) lasts 3 часа 21 minute. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Dudinka, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
For Dudinka the high-latitude adjustment is important: during a very long day or a short night, the usual astronomical calculation may need correction.
When preparing for prayer in Dudinka, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:24), Maghrib (23:03) and Isha (00:11) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Dudinka prayer schedule is calculated according to the method of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Russian Federation (SAM RF), using the Hanafi madhhab to determine the Asr time. The data is updated daily and takes into account the city's exact geographic location.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 02:24: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Dudinka
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 Dudinka 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 (02:24) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (23:03): 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.
In Dudinka, due to the high geographic latitude, peculiar astronomical conditions arise. In summer the sun does not set deep below the horizon, the night is very short or bright, and in some periods true twilight may not occur at all. In winter, on the contrary, the day is extremely short. Under such conditions, the usual astronomical calculation of the Fajr and Isha times becomes difficult, so a special adjustment method recommended for high latitudes is applied.
