Verkhnetulomskiy prayer times overview
The Verkhnetulomskiy page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Verkhnetulomskiy prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Verkhnetulomskiy the coordinates 68.6073°N and 31.7962°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.
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. For high latitudes, special rules for adjusting the calculation are applied when necessary.
Today in Verkhnetulomskiy 19 часов 9 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 03:23, while the evening prayer begins at 22:32. This is a very long daylight day: it is especially important to monitor the Isha and Fajr times carefully.
3 часа 34 минуты passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 22:32 and the morning Fajr at 02:06. For Verkhnetulomskiy this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Verkhnetulomskiy, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
For Verkhnetulomskiy 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 Verkhnetulomskiy, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:06), Maghrib (22:32) and Isha (23:45) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Verkhnetulomskiy 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.

Questions about prayer times in Verkhnetulomskiy
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.
Prayer times in Verkhnetulomskiy 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 (02:06) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (22:32) 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.
The location of Verkhnetulomskiy 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.
