Syamzha prayer times overview
The Syamzha 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 Syamzha 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.
For Syamzha the coordinates 60.0158°N and 41.0614°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr 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 Syamzha the sun rises at 04:08, while Maghrib begins at 20:34. Daylight lasts 16 часов 26 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Syamzha begins after Maghrib at 20:34 and lasts until Fajr at 02:07. Its duration is 5 часов 33 минуты. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Syamzha there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
The summer light regime in Syamzha differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
When preparing for prayer in Syamzha, it is convenient to check Fajr (02:07), Maghrib (20:34) and Isha (22:28) in advance. These times are often used as references for the start of the day, iftar and the night prayer.
The Syamzha 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 — 02:07: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 04:08: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:22: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 17:47: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 20:34: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 22:28: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Syamzha
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 Syamzha 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.
Yes, the schedule is suitable for determining the suhur and iftar times. The Fajr time (02:07) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:34) 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.
Because Syamzha 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.
