Pyt-Yakh prayer times overview
The Pyt-Yakh page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Pyt-Yakh is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
For Pyt-Yakh the coordinates 60.7561°N and 72.8514°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Pyt-Yakh 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.
The daytime interval in Pyt-Yakh today is 12 часов 1 minute — from sunrise at 05:59 to Maghrib at 18:00. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Pyt-Yakh 9 часов 50 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 18:00, while Fajr begins at 03:50. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Pyt-Yakh the period of bright nights recedes, while the night interval between Maghrib and Fajr gradually lengthens.
Bright summer nights are typical for Pyt-Yakh. 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 Pyt-Yakh: Fajr — 03:50, Maghrib — 18:00 and Isha — 20:00. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Pyt-Yakh 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.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 03:50: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 05:59: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:00: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 15:50: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 18:00: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 20:00: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Pyt-Yakh
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.
Prayer times in Pyt-Yakh 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.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (03:50) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (18:00) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
In Pyt-Yakh, 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.
