Molochnoye prayer times overview
The Molochnoye page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Molochnoye is Same as Moscow time (MSK). 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 Molochnoye the coordinates 59.2917°N and 39.6787°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.
Molochnoye prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Molochnoye 16 часов 17 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 04:18, while the evening prayer begins at 20:35. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Molochnoye the period from Maghrib (20:35) to Fajr (02:15) lasts 5 часов 40 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Molochnoye there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Molochnoye. 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 Molochnoye
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.
The prayer schedule in Molochnoye is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:15) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:35): 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.
Because Molochnoye 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.
