Verkh-Tula prayer times overview
The Verkh-Tula page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Verkh-Tula prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Verkh-Tula the coordinates 54.8839°N and 82.7762°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
The daytime interval in Verkh-Tula today is 15 часов 31 minute — from sunrise at 05:49 to Maghrib at 21:20. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов 13 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:20 and the morning Fajr at 03:33. For Verkh-Tula 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 Verkh-Tula the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
If you plan your day around the Verkh-Tula prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:33 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:20 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:27 the start of the night prayer.
The Verkh-Tula 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 — 03:33: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 05:49: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 13:35: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:51: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 21:20: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 23:27: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Verkh-Tula
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 Verkh-Tula 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 (03:33) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:20) 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Verkh-Tula it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
