Zhigalovo prayer times overview
The Zhigalovo prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Zhigalovo prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is 5 часов ahead of Moscow time. For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
Zhigalovo coordinates: 54.8101°N and 105.1593°E. Latitude affects the length of day and night, while longitude affects the actual position of the sun relative to local time. 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 Zhigalovo the sun rises at 05:17, while Maghrib begins at 20:52. Daylight lasts 15 часов 35 минут. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Zhigalovo 6 часов 11 минут passes from Maghrib to Fajr today: Maghrib begins at 20:52, while Fajr begins at 03:03. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In the summer season in Zhigalovo the evening prayer begins later, while the night interval shortens.
If you plan your day around the Zhigalovo prayer schedule, pay attention first of all to Fajr, Maghrib and Isha. Fajr in 03:03 helps to define the morning reference, Maghrib in 20:52 the time of the evening prayer and iftar, and Isha in 22:58 the start of the night prayer.
Prayer times for Zhigalovo 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 Zhigalovo
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 Zhigalovo 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 (03:03) serves as a reference for ending the pre-dawn meal: suhur must be completed before it begins. The Maghrib time (20:52) 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 Zhigalovo 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.
