Nesterov prayer times overview
For Nesterov 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 Nesterov: the city's time zone is 1 hour behind Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Nesterov geographic location is 54.6306°N, 22.5714°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Nesterov the sun rises at 04:49, while Maghrib begins at 20:21. Daylight lasts 15 часов 32 минуты. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Nesterov 6 часов 13 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:21, while Fajr begins at 02:34. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Nesterov the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Nesterov: Fajr — 02:34, Maghrib — 20:21 and Isha — 22:28. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
Prayer times for Nesterov are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Nesterov
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 Nesterov 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.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:34) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:21) 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Nesterov it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
