Yekaterinburg prayer times overview
The Yekaterinburg prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Yekaterinburg prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Yekaterinburg the coordinates 56.8389°N and 60.6057°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
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 northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
The daytime interval in Yekaterinburg today is 12 часов 1 minute — from sunrise at 06:48 to Maghrib at 18:49. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
10 часов 5 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 18:49 and the morning Fajr at 04:54. For Yekaterinburg this is an important reference for planning night prayers. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Yekaterinburg daylight shortens rapidly, so Maghrib gradually begins earlier, while the night interval lengthens.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Yekaterinburg: Fajr — 04:54, Maghrib — 18:49 and Isha — 20:35. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Yekaterinburg, 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.

- Fajr — 04:54: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Yekaterinburg
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 Yekaterinburg 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 (04:54) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (18:49): 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 Yekaterinburg 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.
