Shestakovo prayer times overview
The Shestakovo prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Shestakovo prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 5 часов ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Shestakovo coordinates: 56.4915°N and 103.9600°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.
Today in Shestakovo the sun rises at 05:15, while Maghrib begins at 21:04. Daylight lasts 15 часов 49 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:04 and the morning Fajr at 03:04. For Shestakovo this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Shestakovo the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
When preparing for prayer in Shestakovo, it is convenient to check Fajr (03:04), Maghrib (21:04) and Isha (23:07) 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 Shestakovo, 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 Shestakovo
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.
The prayer schedule in Shestakovo 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (03:04) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:04): 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 Shestakovo 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.
