Lomonosov prayer times overview
The Lomonosov prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
The Lomonosov prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is Same as Moscow time (MSK). Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Lomonosov geographic location is 59.9061°N, 29.7725°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.
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. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
The daytime interval in Lomonosov today is 16 часов 24 минуты — from sunrise at 04:54 to Maghrib at 21:18. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Lomonosov 5 часов 34 минуты passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 21:18, while Fajr begins at 02:52. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Lomonosov there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Lomonosov. During this period Isha may begin late, while Fajr may be early, so it is advisable to check the schedule daily.

Questions about prayer times in Lomonosov
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
Prayer times in Lomonosov 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, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:52) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:18) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
Because Lomonosov is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
