Yakutsk prayer times overview
The Yakutsk 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 Yakutsk: the city's time zone is 6 часов ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
For Yakutsk the coordinates 62.0355°N and 129.6755°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. 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.
Today in Yakutsk the sun rises at 04:00, while Maghrib begins at 20:53. Daylight lasts 16 часов 53 минуты. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Yakutsk the period from Maghrib (20:53) to Fajr (02:06) lasts 5 часов 13 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Yakutsk there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Yakutsk. During this period Isha may begin late, while Fajr may be early, so it is advisable to check the schedule daily.
If you plan your day around the Yakutsk prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:06 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:53 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:40 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Yakutsk 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.

- Fajr — 02:06: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Yakutsk
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.
We update the schedule in Yakutsk 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (02:06) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:53) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
Because Yakutsk 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.
