Questions about prayer times in Rostov-on-Don
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 Rostov-on-Don 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.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (03:13) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (19:48) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
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 Rostov-on-Don 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.
