Yuzhnyy prayer times overview
The Yuzhnyy page shows prayer times calculated taking into account local time and geographic location. This is especially important for Fajr, Maghrib and Isha.
Local time in Yuzhnyy 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 Yuzhnyy the coordinates 45.0025°N and 40.4747°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. For southern latitudes, the seasonal changes in day and night length are more moderate.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In southern cities, differences are often noticeable in sunrise, Dhuhr and Maghrib times.
Today in Yuzhnyy 14 часов 29 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:09, while the evening prayer begins at 19:38. This is a moderate day length without sharp seasonal deviations.
In Yuzhnyy the period from Maghrib (19:38) to Fajr (03:24) lasts 7 часов 46 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Yuzhnyy the day lengthens, but the differences are usually less sharp than in northern cities.

Questions about prayer times in Yuzhnyy
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 Yuzhnyy 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 (03:24) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (19:38): 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.
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 Yuzhnyy 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.
