Shuya prayer times overview
The Shuya page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Shuya is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
Shuya coordinates: 61.9525°N and 34.2327°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 Shuya 16 часов 51 minute passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 04:23, while the evening prayer begins at 21:14. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
5 часов 14 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 21:14 and the morning Fajr at 02:28. For Shuya 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 Shuya there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
The summer light regime in Shuya differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
When preparing for prayer in Shuya, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:28), Maghrib (21:14) and Isha (23:01) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
Prayer times for Shuya are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Shuya
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.
Prayer times in Shuya 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 (02:28) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (21:14) — 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.
Because Shuya is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
