Karanlukh prayer times overview
The Karanlukh prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Karanlukh prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Karanlukh coordinates: 40.1044°N and 45.2897°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
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 southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
The daytime interval in Karanlukh today is 14 часов 4 минуты — from sunrise at 06:02 to Maghrib at 20:06. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Karanlukh the period from Maghrib (20:06) to Fajr (04:30) lasts 8 часов 24 минуты. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Karanlukh the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Karanlukh: Fajr — 04:30, Maghrib — 20:06 and Isha — 21:32. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Karanlukh, 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.

Questions about prayer times in Karanlukh
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 Karanlukh 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 (04:30) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:06) 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 not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Karanlukh according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
