Sol'tsy prayer times overview
For Sol'tsy it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
Local time in Sol'tsy 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.
Sol'tsy coordinates: 58.1223°N and 30.3183°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 Sol'tsy today is 16 часов 4 минуты — from sunrise at 05:02 to Maghrib at 21:06. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Sol'tsy begins after Maghrib at 21:06 and lasts until Fajr at 02:55. Its duration is 5 часов 49 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Sol'tsy the day is long, so Maghrib may begin late, while the interval between Isha and Fajr may shorten.
If you plan your day around the Sol'tsy prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:55 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:06 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:05 the start of the night prayer.
The Sol'tsy prayer schedule is calculated according to the method of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of the Russian Federation (SAM RF), using the Hanafi madhhab to determine the Asr time. The data is updated daily and takes into account the city's exact geographic location.
Today's key reference points
- Fajr — 02:55: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.

Questions about prayer times in Sol'tsy
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 Sol'tsy 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 (02:55) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:06): 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 Sol'tsy 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.
