Rechitsy prayer times overview
The Rechitsy prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Rechitsy prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Rechitsy the coordinates 55.5975°N and 38.4713°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
Rechitsy 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 northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
Today in Rechitsy the sun rises at 06:17, while Maghrib begins at 18:18. Daylight lasts 12 часов 1 minute. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Rechitsy 10 часов 9 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 18:18, while Fajr begins at 04:27. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Rechitsy daylight shortens rapidly, so Maghrib gradually begins earlier, while the night interval lengthens.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Rechitsy: Fajr — 04:27, Maghrib — 18:18 and Isha — 20:00. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Rechitsy prayer schedule is calculated according to the method of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Russian Federation (SAM RF), using the Hanafi madhhab to determine the Asr time. The data is updated daily and takes into account the city's exact geographic location.

- Fajr — 04:27: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 06:17: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:18: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 16:16: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.

Questions about prayer times in Rechitsy
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 Rechitsy 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 (04:27) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (18:18): 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 Rechitsy 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.
