Ossora prayer times overview
The Ossora 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 Ossora: the city's time zone is 9 часов ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Ossora coordinates: 59.2495°N and 163.0720°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Ossora prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Ossora the sun rises at 05:06, while Maghrib begins at 21:20. Daylight lasts 16 часов 14 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 42 минуты passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:20 and the morning Fajr at 03:02. For Ossora this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Ossora there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Ossora. During this period Isha may begin late, while Fajr may be early, so it is advisable to check the schedule daily.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Ossora: Fajr — 03:02, Maghrib — 21:20 and Isha — 23:16. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Ossora, 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 Ossora
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
Prayer times in Ossora 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (03:02) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:20): 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.
In Ossora, due to the high geographic latitude, peculiar astronomical conditions arise. In summer the sun does not set deep below the horizon, the night is very short or bright, and in some periods true twilight may not occur at all. In winter, on the contrary, the day is extremely short. Under such conditions, the usual astronomical calculation of the Fajr and Isha times becomes difficult, so a special adjustment method recommended for high latitudes is applied.
