Ust-Kuyga prayer times overview
For Ust-Kuyga 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.
Local time is applied for Ust-Kuyga: the city's time zone is 7 часов ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
For Ust-Kuyga the coordinates 70.0021°N and 135.5488°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. Such a latitude requires special attention when calculating Fajr and Isha during periods of very bright nights or polar phenomena.
Ust-Kuyga prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. For high latitudes, special rules for adjusting the calculation are applied when necessary.
Today in Ust-Kuyga 19 часов 50 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 03:07, while the evening prayer begins at 22:57. This is a very long daylight day: it is especially important to monitor the Isha and Fajr times carefully.
In Ust-Kuyga 3 часа 3 минуты passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 22:57, while Fajr begins at 02:00. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Ust-Kuyga, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
For Ust-Kuyga the high-latitude adjustment is important: during a very long day or a short night, the usual astronomical calculation may need correction.
When preparing for prayer in Ust-Kuyga, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:00), Maghrib (22:57) and Isha (00:00) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Ust-Kuyga, 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 Ust-Kuyga
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 Ust-Kuyga 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 (02:00) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (22:57): 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.
In Ust-Kuyga, 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.
