Turka prayer times overview
The Turka page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
The Turka prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 5 часов ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Turka coordinates: 52.9492°N and 108.2217°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.
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. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
The daytime interval in Turka today is 15 часов 20 минут — from sunrise at 05:13 to Maghrib at 20:33. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов 21 minute passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:33 and the morning Fajr at 02:54. For Turka this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Turka the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
When preparing for prayer in Turka, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:54), Maghrib (20:33) and Isha (22:43) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Turka 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 — 02:54: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Turka
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 Turka 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 (02:54) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:33) 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.
It is not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Turka according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
