Nagorsk prayer times overview
For Nagorsk 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.
The Nagorsk prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is Same as Moscow time (MSK). Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Nagorsk geographic location is 59.3193°N, 50.8061°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Nagorsk 12 часов passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:28, while the evening prayer begins at 17:28. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
9 часов 56 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 17:28 and the morning Fajr at 03:24. For Nagorsk this is an important reference for planning night prayers. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Nagorsk the period of bright nights recedes, while the night interval between Maghrib and Fajr gradually lengthens.
The summer light regime in Nagorsk differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Nagorsk: Fajr — 03:24, Maghrib — 17:28 and Isha — 19:23. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Nagorsk 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.

Questions about prayer times in Nagorsk
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.
We update the schedule in Nagorsk daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (03:24) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (17:28): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
The location of Nagorsk at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
