Vanavara prayer times overview
The Vanavara prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time in Vanavara is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
Vanavara geographic location is 60.3468°N, 102.2843°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
The daytime interval in Vanavara today is 12 часов 2 минуты — from sunrise at 06:01 to Maghrib at 18:03. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Vanavara begins after Maghrib at 18:03 and lasts until Fajr at 03:54. Its duration is 9 часов 51 minute. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Vanavara the period of bright nights recedes, while the night interval between Maghrib and Fajr gradually lengthens.
The summer light regime in Vanavara differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
If you plan your day around the Vanavara prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:54 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 18:03 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 20:01 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Vanavara 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 Vanavara
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
We update the schedule in Vanavara 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, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (03:54) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (18:03) 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.
Because Vanavara is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
