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 in Khimki 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.
Khimki coordinates: 55.9001°N and 37.4285°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.
The prayer schedule does not depend only on the region's official time. It is affected by the sun's altitude above the horizon, so in neighbouring cities the Fajr, Dhuhr and Maghrib values may differ. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
The daytime interval in Khimki today is 15 часов 43 минуты — from sunrise at 04:44 to Maghrib at 20:27. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов 5 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:27 and the morning Fajr at 02:32. For Khimki this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Khimki the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
When preparing for prayer in Khimki, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:32), Maghrib (20:27) and Isha (22:32) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Khimki 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 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.
Prayer times in Khimki 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (02:32) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:27) — 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 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 Khimki 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.
