Pyt-Yakh prayer times overview
The Pyt-Yakh 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 Pyt-Yakh: the city's time zone is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Pyt-Yakh geographic location is 60.7499°N, 72.8582°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. 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.
Today in Pyt-Yakh 16 часов 36 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 03:56, while the evening prayer begins at 20:32. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Pyt-Yakh 5 часов 26 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:32, while Fajr begins at 01:58. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Pyt-Yakh there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
In Pyt-Yakh there may be white nights at the beginning of summer: twilight does not always pass into full darkness. For this reason the interval between Maghrib, Isha and Fajr shortens.
If you plan your day around the Pyt-Yakh prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 01:58 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:32 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:23 the start of the night prayer.
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 — 01:58: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 03:56: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:15: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 17:41: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:32: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 22:23: 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.
We update the schedule in Pyt-Yakh 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.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (01:58) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:32) — 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 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.
