Preobrazheniye prayer times overview
For Preobrazheniye 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 in Preobrazheniye is 7 часов ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
Preobrazheniye coordinates: 42.9009°N and 133.9042°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.
Preobrazheniye 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.
Today in Preobrazheniye 14 часов 20 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 06:00, while the evening prayer begins at 20:20. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Preobrazheniye 8 часов 1 minute passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:20, while Fajr begins at 04:21. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In summer in Preobrazheniye the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
If you plan your day around the Preobrazheniye prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 04:21 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:20 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 21:51 the start of the night prayer.

Questions about prayer times in Preobrazheniye
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.
Prayer times in Preobrazheniye 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 (04:21) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:20): 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 Preobrazheniye 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.
