Verkhniye Kigi prayer times overview
The Verkhniye Kigi prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Verkhniye Kigi prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Verkhniye Kigi the coordinates 55.4077°N and 58.6013°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. At such a latitude, the seasonal difference between the summer and winter prayer schedules is felt more strongly.
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 northern cities, the difference between the summer and winter schedules is usually stronger.
According to today's schedule for Verkhniye Kigi, the sun rises at 06:56, while the Maghrib time begins at 18:57. 12 часов 1 minute passes between these events. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
10 часов 9 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 18:57 and the morning Fajr at 05:06. For Verkhniye Kigi this is an important reference for planning night prayers. This is a convenient night length for Isha, performing Witr and preparing for Fajr.
In autumn in Verkhniye Kigi daylight shortens rapidly, so Maghrib gradually begins earlier, while the night interval lengthens.
If you plan your day around the Verkhniye Kigi prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 05:06 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 18:57 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 20:39 the start of the night prayer.
The SAM RF method is applied when calculating the schedule for Verkhniye Kigi, while the Asr time is determined according to the Hanafi madhhab. This allows the schedule to be used as a daily reference for the obligatory prayers.

Questions about prayer times in Verkhniye Kigi
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.
Prayer times in Verkhniye Kigi 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 (05:06) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (18:57) 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.
This is not the most reliable approach. The more accurate the coordinates, the more accurate the prayer times, and in each city they are unique. Even a small shift in latitude or longitude changes the moment of sunrise and sunset, and therefore the prayer times as well. Therefore, for Verkhniye Kigi it is more correct to rely on an individual schedule drawn up for this city specifically; this is especially important during Ramadan, when the calculation is conducted literally in minutes.
