Ts'alk'ot'i prayer times overview
The Ts'alk'ot'i prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
The Ts'alk'ot'i prayer schedule is calculated according to the city's time zone: it is 1 hour ahead of Moscow time. Even with the same date, prayer times may differ from other regions.
Ts'alk'ot'i geographic location is 43.4000°N, 40.0525°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
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 southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
Today in Ts'alk'ot'i 14 часов 21 minute passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 06:15, while the evening prayer begins at 20:36. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
The night interval in Ts'alk'ot'i begins after Maghrib at 20:36 and lasts until Fajr at 04:34. Its duration is 7 часов 58 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Ts'alk'ot'i the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Ts'alk'ot'i: Fajr — 04:34, Maghrib — 20:36 and Isha — 22:09. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.

Questions about prayer times in Ts'alk'ot'i
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.
Prayer times in Ts'alk'ot'i 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 (04:34) 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 not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Ts'alk'ot'i according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
