Novorossiysk prayer times overview
The Novorossiysk 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 Novorossiysk: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Novorossiysk coordinates: 44.7239°N and 37.7689°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
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 southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
The daytime interval in Novorossiysk today is 14 часов 28 минут — from sunrise at 05:21 to Maghrib at 19:49. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Novorossiysk begins after Maghrib at 19:49 and lasts until Fajr at 03:36. Its duration is 7 часов 47 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Novorossiysk the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Novorossiysk prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:36 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 19:49 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:25 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Novorossiysk, while the Asr time is determined according to the Hanafi madhhab. This allows the schedule to be used as a daily reference for the obligatory prayers.

Questions about prayer times in Novorossiysk
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.
The prayer schedule in Novorossiysk 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 (03:36) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (19:49): 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.
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 Novorossiysk 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.
