Ushkovo prayer times overview
The Ushkovo prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Local time in Ushkovo 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 Ushkovo the coordinates 60.2019°N and 29.6257°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.
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. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
According to today's schedule for Ushkovo, the sun rises at 04:53, while the Maghrib time begins at 21:21. 16 часов 28 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Ushkovo begins after Maghrib at 21:21 and lasts until Fajr at 02:52. Its duration is 5 часов 31 minute. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Ushkovo there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
The summer light regime in Ushkovo differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Ushkovo: Fajr — 02:52, Maghrib — 21:21 and Isha — 23:14. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Ushkovo 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 Ushkovo
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 Ushkovo 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 (02:52) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:21): 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.
The location of Ushkovo at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
