Znamensk prayer times overview
The Znamensk 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 Znamensk: the city's time zone is 1 hour behind Moscow time. This affects all prayers — from the morning Fajr to the night Isha.
Znamensk geographic location is 54.6140°N, 21.2272°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.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. In the mid-latitude zone, the seasonal shifts of Fajr and Maghrib are especially noticeable.
Today in Znamensk the sun rises at 04:54, while Maghrib begins at 20:27. Daylight lasts 15 часов 33 минуты. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Znamensk begins after Maghrib at 20:27 and lasts until Fajr at 02:39. Its duration is 6 часов 12 минут. The night interval is relatively short, so it is convenient to plan Isha and suhur in advance.
In summer in Znamensk the daylight length increases: this is especially noticeable for the early Fajr and late Maghrib.
Three times are especially important for daily practice in Znamensk: Fajr — 02:39, Maghrib — 20:27 and Isha — 22:34. They help to correctly distribute morning, evening and night activities.
Prayer times for Znamensk 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 Znamensk
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 Znamensk 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.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:39) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (20:27): 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 Znamensk 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.
