Khimki prayer times overview
For Khimki it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
Local time is applied for Khimki: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Khimki coordinates: 55.8893°N and 37.4300°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
Khimki prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
Today in Khimki 12 часов 1 minute passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 06:21, while the evening prayer begins at 18:22. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Khimki 10 часов 8 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 18:22, while Fajr begins at 04:30. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Khimki daylight shortens rapidly, so Maghrib gradually begins earlier, while the night interval lengthens.
If you plan your day around the Khimki prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:30 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 18:22 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 20:05 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Khimki, while the Asr time is determined according to the Hanafi madhhab. This allows the schedule to be used as a daily reference for the obligatory prayers.

Questions about prayer times in Khimki
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 Khimki 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (04:30) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (18:22) — 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.
It is not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Khimki according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
