Syapsya prayer times overview
The Syapsya 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 Syapsya 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.
Syapsya coordinates: 61.9222°N and 33.3868°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 Syapsya 16 часов 51 minute passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 04:26, while the evening prayer begins at 21:17. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Syapsya 5 часов 15 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 21:17, while Fajr begins at 02:32. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Syapsya there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
In Syapsya there may be white nights at the beginning of summer: twilight does not always pass into full darkness. For this reason the interval between Maghrib, Isha and Fajr shortens.
If you plan your day around the Syapsya prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:32 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:17 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:04 the start of the night prayer.
The Syapsya 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 — 02:32: the start of the morning prayer time and an important reference for ending suhur.
- Sunrise — 04:26: after sunrise the Fajr time ends.
- Dhuhr — 12:52: the time of the midday prayer.
- Asr — 18:21: the afternoon prayer calculated according to the Hanafi madhhab.
- Maghrib — 21:17: the evening prayer, and also a reference for iftar during Ramadan.
- Isha — 23:04: the night prayer.
Questions about prayer times in Syapsya
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.
The prayer schedule in Syapsya 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 (02:32) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (21:17) 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 Syapsya 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.
