Mezhdurechenskiy prayer times overview
The Mezhdurechenskiy 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 is applied for Mezhdurechenskiy: the city's time zone is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
For Mezhdurechenskiy the coordinates 59.6000°N and 65.9333°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. 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.
According to today's schedule for Mezhdurechenskiy, the sun rises at 04:31, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:52. 16 часов 21 minute passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Mezhdurechenskiy begins after Maghrib at 20:52 and lasts until Fajr at 02:29. Its duration is 5 часов 37 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Mezhdurechenskiy there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
In Mezhdurechenskiy there may be white nights at the beginning of summer: twilight does not always pass into full darkness. For this reason the interval between Maghrib, Isha and Fajr shortens.
When preparing for prayer in Mezhdurechenskiy, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:29), Maghrib (20:52) and Isha (22:47) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Mezhdurechenskiy 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 Mezhdurechenskiy
The prayer schedule directly depends on three factors: geographic latitude, longitude and the time zone. The sun rises and sets at its own time at every point on the globe, so the moments of Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha inevitably differ even between closely located localities. The greater the difference in latitude, the more noticeable the difference in the morning and evening prayer times. This is precisely why the schedule is drawn up to match the coordinates of each city.
Prayer times in Mezhdurechenskiy 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 (02:29) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:52) 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.
The location of Mezhdurechenskiy 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.
