Oster prayer times overview
The Oster prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Oster prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Oster geographic location is 54.0170°N, 32.8019°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
Oster 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 Oster 15 часов 27 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:11, while the evening prayer begins at 20:38. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Oster begins after Maghrib at 20:38 and lasts until Fajr at 02:54. Its duration is 6 часов 16 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Oster the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Oster: Fajr — 02:54, Maghrib — 20:38 and Isha — 22:46. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Oster 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 Oster
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 Oster 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 (02:54) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:38): 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 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 Oster 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.
