Sokur prayer times overview
For Sokur it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
The Sokur prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
For Sokur the coordinates 55.2093°N and 83.3190°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
Sokur 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 northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
Today in Sokur the sun rises at 05:43, while Maghrib begins at 21:21. Daylight lasts 15 часов 38 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Sokur the period from Maghrib (21:21) to Fajr (03:29) lasts 6 часов 8 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Sokur the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Sokur: Fajr — 03:29, Maghrib — 21:21 and Isha — 23:27. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Sokur 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 Sokur
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.
Prayer times in Sokur 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (03:29) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (21:21) — 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.
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 Sokur 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.
