Shumerlya prayer times overview
The Shumerlya page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Shumerlya 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.
For Shumerlya the coordinates 55.5005°N and 46.4129°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr 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.
According to today's schedule for Shumerlya, the sun rises at 04:10, while the Maghrib time begins at 19:50. 15 часов 40 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Shumerlya begins after Maghrib at 19:50 and lasts until Fajr at 01:56. Its duration is 6 часов 6 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Shumerlya the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
When preparing for prayer in Shumerlya, it is convenient to check Fajr (01:56), Maghrib (19:50) and Isha (21:55) 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 Shumerlya, 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.

- Fajr — 01:56: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Shumerlya
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.
We update the schedule in Shumerlya daily. The sun does not rise at the same time from day to day: the daylight length gradually increases from winter to summer and shortens from summer to winter. For this reason the Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha times shift slightly every day. The most noticeable changes occur in spring and autumn, so a daily check with the schedule is the best practice.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (01:56) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (19:50): 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 Shumerlya 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.
