Surazh prayer times overview
The Surazh prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Surazh 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 Surazh the coordinates 53.0175°N and 32.3918°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
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 the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
According to today's schedule for Surazh, the sun rises at 05:16, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:36. 15 часов 20 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов 21 minute passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:36 and the morning Fajr at 02:57. For Surazh 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 Surazh the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
If you plan your day around the Surazh prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:57 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:36 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:46 the start of the night prayer.
The Surazh 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.

Questions about prayer times in Surazh
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.
Prayer times in Surazh 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, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:57) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:36) indicates the moment of iftar — the fast is broken precisely at sunset. Nevertheless, during the blessed month of Ramadan we advise checking the current values daily, since a difference of just a few minutes can be important while fasting.
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 Surazh 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.
