Pesochnyy prayer times overview
The Pesochnyy page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
The Pesochnyy prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is Same as Moscow time (MSK). Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Pesochnyy geographic location is 60.1230°N, 30.1640°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
According to today's schedule for Pesochnyy, the sun rises at 04:51, while the Maghrib time begins at 21:18. 16 часов 27 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Pesochnyy the period from Maghrib (21:18) to Fajr (02:50) lasts 5 часов 32 минуты. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Pesochnyy there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Pesochnyy. 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 Pesochnyy
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 Pesochnyy 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.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:50) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:18) 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.
Because Pesochnyy 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.
