Karayar prayer times overview
For Karayar 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.
Karayar 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.
Karayar geographic location is 55.6997°N, 57.0232°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
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 northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
The daytime interval in Karayar today is 15 часов 42 минуты — from sunrise at 05:26 to Maghrib at 21:08. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Karayar begins after Maghrib at 21:08 and lasts until Fajr at 03:14. Its duration is 6 часов 6 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Karayar the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Karayar: Fajr — 03:14, Maghrib — 21:08 and Isha — 23:13. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Karayar 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 — 03:14: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 05:26: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 13:18: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:36: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 21:08: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 23:13: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Karayar
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 Karayar 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 (03:14) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:08) 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Karayar it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
