Why Fajr and Isha need an estimation rule here

At this latitude the sun does not sink a full 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so true night — and with it the astronomical basis for Fajr and Isha — does not occur for several weeks. We apply the Middle of the Night rule during that period, splitting the interval between sunset and sunrise. Your local mosque in Rostov may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Rostov — common questions

What time is Fajr in Rostov today?

Fajr in Rostov begins at 12:27 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.

Which direction is the Qibla from Rostov?

From Rostov, the Qibla is 179.3° from true north — roughly S. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.

Which calculation method is used for Rostov?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Russia. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.

How far is Rostov from Makkah?

Rostov lies approximately 3977 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.

How much does daylight change through the year in Rostov?

Day length in Rostov ranges from about 6.7 hours at midwinter to 17.9 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 11.2 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
