Kipen' prayer times overview
The Kipen' prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time in Kipen' 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.
Kipen' geographic location is 59.6741°N, 29.8498°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 Kipen' the sun rises at 04:55, while Maghrib begins at 21:17. Daylight lasts 16 часов 22 минуты. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Kipen' the period from Maghrib (21:17) to Fajr (02:53) lasts 5 часов 36 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Kipen' there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
The summer light regime in Kipen' differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
If you plan your day around the Kipen' prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:53 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:17 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:11 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Kipen', 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 Kipen'
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.
We update the schedule in Kipen' daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (02:53) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (21:17) — 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.
The location of Kipen' at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
