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 Shchuch’ye may use a different convention; where they differ, follow the mosque.

Prayer times in Shchuch’ye — common questions

What time is Fajr in Shchuch’ye today?

Fajr in Shchuch’ye begins at 12:40 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 Shchuch’ye?

From Shchuch’ye, the Qibla is 220.7° from true north — roughly SW. 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 Shchuch’ye?

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 much does daylight change through the year in Shchuch’ye?

Day length in Shchuch’ye ranges from about 7.1 hours at midwinter to 17.5 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 10.4 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.

Why do Fajr and Isha times look unusual in Shchuch’ye during summer?

Because Shchuch’ye sits far enough north that the sun does not drop 18° below the horizon around midsummer, so astronomical night never arrives. When that happens we apply the Middle of the Night rule rather than leaving the times undefined.
