Kolpino prayer times overview
The Kolpino 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 is applied for Kolpino: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
For Kolpino the coordinates 59.7507°N and 30.5886°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. 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.
The daytime interval in Kolpino today is 12 часов — from sunrise at 06:49 to Maghrib at 18:49. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Kolpino 9 часов 54 минуты passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 18:49, while Fajr begins at 04:43. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Kolpino the period of bright nights recedes, while the night interval between Maghrib and Fajr gradually lengthens.
Bright summer nights are typical for Kolpino. During this period Isha may begin late, while Fajr may be early, so it is advisable to check the schedule daily.
When preparing for prayer in Kolpino, it is convenient to check Fajr (04:43), Maghrib (18:49) and Isha (20:45) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Kolpino 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 Kolpino
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 Kolpino 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 (04:43) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (18:49): 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.
The location of Kolpino 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.
