Ovoshchi prayer times overview
The Ovoshchi 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 Ovoshchi: the city's time zone is Same as Moscow time (MSK). This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Ovoshchi geographic location is 45.3664°N, 43.3233°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
Ovoshchi prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
The daytime interval in Ovoshchi today is 14 часов 31 minute — from sunrise at 04:57 to Maghrib at 19:28. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Ovoshchi 7 часов 42 минуты passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 19:28, while Fajr begins at 03:10. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Ovoshchi the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Ovoshchi: Fajr — 03:10, Maghrib — 19:28 and Isha — 21:06. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Ovoshchi, 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 Ovoshchi
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 Ovoshchi 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (03:10) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (19:28): 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.
It is better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Ovoshchi it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
