Erleks prayer times overview
The Erleks page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Erleks is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
For Erleks the coordinates 55.6021°N and 40.3851°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.
Erleks prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.

Questions about prayer times in Erleks
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.
The prayer schedule in Erleks is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:20) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:14) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
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 Erleks 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.
