Volosovo prayer times overview
For Volosovo it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
Volosovo prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Volosovo coordinates: 59.4453°N and 29.4891°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.
Volosovo prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
According to today's schedule for Volosovo, the sun rises at 04:58, while the Maghrib time begins at 21:17. 16 часов 19 минут passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Volosovo begins after Maghrib at 21:17 and lasts until Fajr at 02:55. Its duration is 5 часов 38 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Volosovo there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.
The summer light regime in Volosovo differs from southern cities: the night shortens, and this directly affects the night and morning prayer times.
If you plan your day around the Volosovo prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:55 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 21:17 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 23:12 the start of the night prayer.
The Volosovo 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 Volosovo
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.
The prayer schedule in Volosovo 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 (02:55) 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.
The location of Volosovo 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.
