Shalya prayer times overview
The Shalya page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time is applied for Shalya: the city's time zone is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Shalya coordinates: 57.2471°N and 58.7298°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
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. In northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
The daytime interval in Shalya today is 15 часов 57 минут — from sunrise at 05:12 to Maghrib at 21:09. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 54 минуты passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:09 and the morning Fajr at 03:03. For Shalya 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 Shalya the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
When preparing for prayer in Shalya, it is convenient to check Fajr (03:03), Maghrib (21:09) and Isha (23:10) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Shalya, 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.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 03:03: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 05:12: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.

- Asr — 18:32: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 21:09: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.

Questions about prayer times in Shalya
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
The prayer schedule in Shalya 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 (03:03) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (21:09) — 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.
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 Shalya 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.
