Oktyabr'sk prayer times overview
The Oktyabr'sk prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time is applied for Oktyabr'sk: the city's time zone is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Oktyabr'sk coordinates: 53.1668°N and 48.6972°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
Oktyabr'sk prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Oktyabr'sk the sun rises at 05:10, while Maghrib begins at 20:31. Daylight lasts 15 часов 21 minute. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Oktyabr'sk the period from Maghrib (20:31) to Fajr (02:52) lasts 6 часов 21 minute. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Oktyabr'sk the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
When preparing for prayer in Oktyabr'sk, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:52), Maghrib (20:31) and Isha (22:41) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
Prayer times for Oktyabr'sk are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Oktyabr'sk
Each city has its own geographic coordinates, and it is precisely by them that sunrise and sunset are calculated. Because the Earth rotates and its axis is tilted, prayer times at different points cannot coincide. Latitude determines the length of day and night, longitude determines the moment the sun passes certain positions, and the time zone brings the calculation to local time. The sum of these factors makes the schedule unique for each city.
We update the schedule in Oktyabr'sk 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 (02:52) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:31): 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.
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 Oktyabr'sk according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
