Russkinskiye prayer times overview
The Russkinskiye prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Russkinskiye prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Russkinskiye geographic location is 62.1538°N, 73.6010°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.
The prayer schedule does not depend only on the region's official time. It is affected by the sun's altitude above the horizon, so in neighbouring cities the Fajr, Dhuhr and Maghrib values may differ. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Russkinskiye 16 часов 54 минуты passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 03:44, while the evening prayer begins at 20:38. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Russkinskiye the period from Maghrib (20:38) to Fajr (01:50) lasts 5 часов 12 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Russkinskiye there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Russkinskiye. During this period Isha may begin late, while Fajr may be early, so it is advisable to check the schedule daily.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Russkinskiye: Fajr — 01:50, Maghrib — 20:38 and Isha — 22:24. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Russkinskiye 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.

Questions about prayer times in Russkinskiye
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 Russkinskiye 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, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (01:50) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:38) — 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.
The location of Russkinskiye at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
