Yantarnyy prayer times overview
The Yantarnyy page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Yantarnyy prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 1 hour behind Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Yantarnyy geographic location is 54.8710°N, 19.9402°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. In this latitude zone, the day length changes noticeably throughout the year, but without sharp polar phenomena.
Yantarnyy prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Yantarnyy the sun rises at 04:59, while Maghrib begins at 20:33. Daylight lasts 15 часов 34 минуты. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
6 часов 11 минут passes between the evening Maghrib prayer at 20:33 and the morning Fajr at 02:44. For Yantarnyy this is an important reference for planning night prayers. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Yantarnyy the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
If you plan your day around the Yantarnyy prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 02:44 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:33 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:39 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Yantarnyy are determined according to the SAM RF method. The Hanafi madhhab is applied for Asr, while the calculation is based on the city's coordinates and the current date.

Questions about prayer times in Yantarnyy
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 Yantarnyy 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 (02:44) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:33) 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 better not to do this. Prayer times are calculated based on exact geographic coordinates, and even a relatively small distance between localities can shift the prayer moments by several minutes. The sunrise and sunset to which Fajr and Maghrib are tied occur at their own time at every point. Therefore, for believers in Yantarnyy it is more correct to rely on a separate schedule calculated according to this city's coordinates specifically, especially when determining suhur and iftar during Ramadan.
