Kholmogory prayer times overview
For Kholmogory 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 Kholmogory: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Kholmogory geographic location is 64.2281°N, 41.6511°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.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Kholmogory the sun rises at 03:35, while Maghrib begins at 21:02. Daylight lasts 17 часов 27 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Kholmogory the period from Maghrib (21:02) to Fajr (01:50) lasts 4 часа 48 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Kholmogory there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
In Kholmogory 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.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Kholmogory: Fajr — 01:50, Maghrib — 21:02 and Isha — 22:40. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.

Questions about prayer times in Kholmogory
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 Kholmogory 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 (01:50) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:02): 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.
In Kholmogory, due to the high geographic latitude, peculiar astronomical conditions arise. In summer the sun does not set deep below the horizon, the night is very short or bright, and in some periods true twilight may not occur at all. In winter, on the contrary, the day is extremely short. Under such conditions, the usual astronomical calculation of the Fajr and Isha times becomes difficult, so a special adjustment method recommended for high latitudes is applied.
