Kargopol' prayer times overview
The Kargopol' page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Kargopol' 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.
Kargopol' geographic location is 61.5036°N, 38.9486°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.
Kargopol' prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Kargopol' the sun rises at 04:07, while Maghrib begins at 20:52. Daylight lasts 16 часов 45 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 19 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:52 and the morning Fajr at 02:11. For Kargopol' 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 Kargopol' there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
In Kargopol' there may be white nights at the beginning of summer: twilight does not always pass into full darkness. For this reason the interval between Maghrib, Isha and Fajr shortens.
When preparing for prayer in Kargopol', it is convenient to check Fajr (02:11), Maghrib (20:52) and Isha (22:41) 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 Kargopol'
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 Kargopol' 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 (02:11) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:52) — 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.
Because Kargopol' 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.
