Questions about prayer times in Machulishchy
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 Machulishchy 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (03:16) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:56) — 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 Machulishchy 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.
