Kotel'nich prayer times overview
For Kotel'nich 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.
Kotel'nich prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Kotel'nich coordinates: 58.3035°N and 48.3375°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.
Kotel'nich 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 Kotel'nich the sun rises at 03:49, while Maghrib begins at 19:55. Daylight lasts 16 часов 6 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 47 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 19:55 and the morning Fajr at 01:42. For Kotel'nich this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Kotel'nich 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 Kotel'nich prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 01:42 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 19:55 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:54 the start of the night prayer.
The Kotel'nich 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 Kotel'nich
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 Kotel'nich 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 (01:42) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (19:55) — 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 Kotel'nich 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.
