Astrakhanka prayer times overview
The Astrakhanka 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 Astrakhanka prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Astrakhanka coordinates: 51.5307°N and 69.7969°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.
Today in Astrakhanka the sun rises at 04:52, while Maghrib begins at 20:01. Daylight lasts 15 часов 9 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Astrakhanka the period from Maghrib (20:01) to Fajr (02:38) lasts 6 часов 37 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Astrakhanka the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
When preparing for prayer in Astrakhanka, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:38), Maghrib (20:01) and Isha (22:03) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Astrakhanka
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.
We update the schedule in Astrakhanka 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 (02:38) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:01) — 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Astrakhanka it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
