Oymyakon prayer times overview
The Oymyakon page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time is applied for Oymyakon: the city's time zone is 8 часов ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Oymyakon coordinates: 63.4622°N and 142.7949°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.
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. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
The daytime interval in Oymyakon today is 17 часов 10 минут — from sunrise at 04:59 to Maghrib at 22:09. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Oymyakon the period from Maghrib (22:09) to Fajr (03:10) lasts 5 часов 1 minute. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Oymyakon there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
The summer light regime in Oymyakon differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.

Questions about prayer times in Oymyakon
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.
The prayer schedule in Oymyakon is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (03:10) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (22:09) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
In Oymyakon, 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.
