Altukhovo prayer times overview
The Altukhovo page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Altukhovo 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.
Altukhovo coordinates: 52.6756°N and 34.3670°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local 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.
According to today's schedule for Altukhovo, the sun rises at 05:09, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:27. 15 часов 18 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Altukhovo the period from Maghrib (20:27) to Fajr (02:50) lasts 6 часов 23 минуты. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Altukhovo the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
If you plan your day around the Altukhovo prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:50 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:27 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:35 the start of the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Altukhovo
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.
The prayer schedule in Altukhovo 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:50) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:27): 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 better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Altukhovo it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
