Lovozero prayer times overview
For Lovozero 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 Lovozero: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Lovozero coordinates: 68.0056°N and 35.0187°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. Such a latitude requires special attention when calculating Fajr and Isha during periods of very bright nights or polar phenomena.
Lovozero prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. For high latitudes, special rules for adjusting the calculation are applied when necessary.
The daytime interval in Lovozero today is 18 часов 50 минут — from sunrise at 03:20 to Maghrib at 22:10. This is a very long daylight day: it is especially important to monitor the Isha and Fajr times carefully.
The night interval in Lovozero begins after Maghrib at 22:10 and lasts until Fajr at 01:57. Its duration is 3 часа 47 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Lovozero, due to the high latitude, a very long daylight day may be observed, while for some prayers a calculation adjustment is applied.
For Lovozero the high-latitude adjustment is important: during a very long day or a short night, the usual astronomical calculation may need correction.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Lovozero: Fajr — 01:57, Maghrib — 22:10 and Isha — 23:27. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.

Questions about prayer times in Lovozero
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.
We update the schedule in Lovozero 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 (01:57) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (22:10) — 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 Lovozero 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.
