Sakmara prayer times overview
The Sakmara 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 Sakmara: the city's time zone is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Sakmara coordinates: 51.9844°N and 55.3338°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Sakmara 12 часов 2 минуты passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 07:09, while the evening prayer begins at 19:11. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Sakmara the period from Maghrib (19:11) to Fajr (05:29) lasts 10 часов 18 минут. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In the autumn months in Sakmara daylight shortens, so the difference between the summer and current Maghrib times becomes noticeable.
If you plan your day around the Sakmara prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 05:29 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 19:11 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 20:44 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Sakmara, 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 Sakmara
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.
We update the schedule in Sakmara 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 (05:29) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (19:11) — 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Sakmara it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
