Vitimskiy prayer times overview
The Vitimskiy page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time is applied for Vitimskiy: the city's time zone is 5 часов ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Vitimskiy geographic location is 58.2235°N, 113.2634°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
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. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
Today in Vitimskiy the sun rises at 04:29, while Maghrib begins at 20:36. Daylight lasts 16 часов 7 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.

Questions about prayer times in Vitimskiy
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.
We update the schedule in Vitimskiy 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:23) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:36): 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.
It is not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Vitimskiy according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
