Novichikha prayer times overview
For Novichikha 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.
Novichikha prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 4 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Novichikha coordinates: 52.2073°N and 81.3934°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
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. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
According to today's schedule for Novichikha, the sun rises at 06:05, while the Maghrib time begins at 21:15. 15 часов 10 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Novichikha 6 часов 32 минуты passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 21:15, while Fajr begins at 03:47. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Novichikha the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
If you plan your day around the Novichikha prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:47 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:15 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:20 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Novichikha 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 Novichikha
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.
We update the schedule in Novichikha 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.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (03:47) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (21:15) — 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 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 Novichikha according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
