Izhma prayer times overview
For Izhma 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.
Izhma prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Izhma geographic location is 65.0080°N, 53.9113°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. 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.
The daytime interval in Izhma today is 17 часов 41 minute — from sunrise at 02:39 to Maghrib at 20:20. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Izhma 4 часа 38 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:20, while Fajr begins at 00:58. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Izhma, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
For Izhma the high-latitude adjustment is important: during a very long day or a short night, the usual astronomical calculation may need correction.
If you plan your day around the Izhma prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 00:58 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:20 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:55 the start of the night prayer.
The Izhma 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 — 00:58: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 02:39: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 11:30: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 17:05: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:20: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 21:55: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Izhma
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 Izhma 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 (00:58) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:20) 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.
Because Izhma is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
