Semiozerje prayer times overview
The Semiozerje page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Semiozerje 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.
Semiozerje coordinates: 60.3202°N and 29.2971°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. 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.
Today in Semiozerje the sun rises at 04:53, while Maghrib begins at 21:23. Daylight lasts 16 часов 30 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 30 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:23 and the morning Fajr at 02:53. For Semiozerje this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Semiozerje there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
Bright summer nights are typical for Semiozerje. 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 Semiozerje: Fajr — 02:53, Maghrib — 21:23 and Isha — 23:15. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Semiozerje, while the Asr time is determined according to the Hanafi madhhab. This allows the schedule to be used as a daily reference for the obligatory prayers.

Questions about prayer times in Semiozerje
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 Semiozerje 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 (02:53) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:23): 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.
In Semiozerje, due to the high geographic latitude, peculiar astronomical conditions arise. In summer the sun does not set deep below the horizon, the night is very short or bright, and in some periods true twilight may not occur at all. In winter, on the contrary, the day is extremely short. Under such conditions, the usual astronomical calculation of the Fajr and Isha times becomes difficult, so a special adjustment method recommended for high latitudes is applied.
