Mat'ani prayer times overview
The Mat'ani 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 in Mat'ani is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
For Mat'ani the coordinates 42.0780°N and 45.1956°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
Today in Mat'ani 14 часов 15 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:57, while the evening prayer begins at 20:12. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Mat'ani 8 часов 8 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:12, while Fajr begins at 04:20. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Mat'ani the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Mat'ani prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:20 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:12 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:42 the start of the night prayer.
The Mat'ani 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.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 04:20: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

- Asr — 18:06: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:12: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.

Questions about prayer times in Mat'ani
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 Mat'ani 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (04:20) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:12): 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.
It is not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Mat'ani according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
