Karaton prayer times overview
The Karaton prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Karaton 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 Karaton the coordinates 46.4369°N and 53.4891°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr 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.
According to today's schedule for Karaton, the sun rises at 06:14, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:49. 14 часов 35 минут passes between these events. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
7 часов 36 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:49 and the morning Fajr at 04:25. For Karaton this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Karaton the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Karaton: Fajr — 04:25, Maghrib — 20:49 and Isha — 22:29. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Karaton 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 — 04:25: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 06:14: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 13:32: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:37: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:49: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.

Questions about prayer times in Karaton
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 Karaton 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 (04:25) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:49) 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 Karaton 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.
