Iskateley prayer times overview
The Iskateley 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 Iskateley 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 Iskateley the coordinates 67.6803°N and 53.1512°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.
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. For high latitudes, special rules for adjusting the calculation are applied when necessary.
Today in Iskateley the sun rises at 02:11, while Maghrib begins at 20:53. Daylight lasts 18 часов 42 минуты. This is a very long daylight day: it is especially important to monitor the Isha and Fajr times carefully.
The night interval in Iskateley begins after Maghrib at 20:53 and lasts until Fajr at 00:46. Its duration is 3 часа 53 минуты. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Iskateley, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
Iskateley is located in the high-latitude zone. During such periods, the astronomical calculation of some prayers may become difficult, so the adjustment recommended for northern regions is applied for Fajr and Isha.

Questions about prayer times in Iskateley
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.
Prayer times in Iskateley 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.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (00:46) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:53) 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.
In Iskateley, 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.
