Turukhansk prayer times overview
For Turukhansk 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 Turukhansk 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.
Turukhansk coordinates: 65.7968°N and 87.9677°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. Such a latitude requires special attention when calculating Fajr and Isha during periods of very bright nights or polar phenomena.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. For high latitudes, special rules for adjusting the calculation are applied when necessary.
According to today's schedule for Turukhansk, the sun rises at 04:14, while the Maghrib time begins at 22:12. 17 часов 58 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Turukhansk the period from Maghrib (22:12) to Fajr (02:38) lasts 4 часа 26 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Turukhansk, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
The high latitude of Turukhansk affects the prayer schedule more strongly than in most cities of Russia. In summer and winter there may be peculiarities of the light regime here, so the Fajr and Isha times require especially careful checking.
If you plan your day around the Turukhansk prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:38 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 22:12 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:43 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Turukhansk are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Turukhansk
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.
The prayer schedule in Turukhansk is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:38) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (22:12): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
The location of Turukhansk at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
