Akademicheskoe prayer times overview
The Akademicheskoe prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
The Akademicheskoe prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is Same as Moscow time (MSK). Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Akademicheskoe geographic location is 60.0138°N, 30.3947°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.
Today in Akademicheskoe 16 часов 26 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 04:51, while the evening prayer begins at 21:17. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 33 минуты passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:17 and the morning Fajr at 02:50. For Akademicheskoe 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 Akademicheskoe there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.

Questions about prayer times in Akademicheskoe
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.
The prayer schedule in Akademicheskoe is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:50) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:17) 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 Akademicheskoe 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.
