Zaporozhye prayer times overview
The Zaporozhye 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 is applied for Zaporozhye: the city's time zone is 2 часа ahead of Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Zaporozhye geographic location is 51.6130°N, 67.4249°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.
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 the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Zaporozhye 15 часов 6 минут passes from sunrise to Maghrib: the sun rises at 05:03, while the evening prayer begins at 20:09. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Zaporozhye the period from Maghrib (20:09) to Fajr (02:49) lasts 6 часов 40 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Zaporozhye the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Zaporozhye: Fajr — 02:49, Maghrib — 20:09 and Isha — 22:10. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
The Zaporozhye 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 Zaporozhye
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 Zaporozhye 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 (02:49) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:09) 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 not recommended. The prayer schedule is sensitive to geography: even a difference of tens of kilometres leads to a discrepancy in the Fajr, Maghrib and Isha times. The sun rises and sets at its own moment above each locality, so the data of a neighbouring city is only approximate. To perform the prayer on time, it is advisable to use the schedule calculated for Zaporozhye according to its coordinates specifically, not the nearest centre's.
