Chekhov prayer times overview
The Chekhov prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time in Chekhov is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
For Chekhov the coordinates 55.1455°N and 37.4619°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
Today in Chekhov 15 часов 37 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 04:47, while the evening prayer begins at 20:24. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Chekhov 6 часов 9 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:24, while Fajr begins at 02:33. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Chekhov the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
If you plan your day around the Chekhov prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:33 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:24 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:30 the start of the night prayer.
The Chekhov prayer schedule is calculated according to the method of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Russian Federation (SAM RF), using the Hanafi madhhab to determine the Asr time. The data is updated daily and takes into account the city's exact geographic location.

Questions about prayer times in Chekhov
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.
Prayer times in Chekhov are updated daily. This is related to the constant shifting of the sunrise and sunset moments following the Earth's orbit around the sun. The changes are especially noticeable during the transitional seasons — spring and autumn — when the day length changes fastest, sometimes by several minutes per day. For the schedule to remain accurate, it should be checked daily, not once a week.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:33) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:24): 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 Chekhov 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.
