Ketovo prayer times overview
The Ketovo page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Ketovo prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Ketovo geographic location is 55.3483°N, 65.3314°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
Ketovo 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 Ketovo the sun rises at 04:55, while Maghrib begins at 20:34. Daylight lasts 15 часов 39 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Ketovo 6 часов 7 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:34, while Fajr begins at 02:41. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Ketovo 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 Ketovo prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:41 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:34 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:39 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Ketovo, 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.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 02:41: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 04:55: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:45: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:02: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:34: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 22:39: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Ketovo
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.
Prayer times in Ketovo 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.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:41) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:34) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
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 Ketovo 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.
