Sehri and Iftar in Nizhny Novgorod
For Nizhny Novgorod, the evening fast opens at local sunset, shown as 4:36 pm today. The pre-dawn cutoff is calculated separately from the Fajr setting; sunrise is not used as the start of the fast. The page uses Nizhny Novgorod’s coordinates (56.33, 44.00) and the Europe/Moscow time zone.
Sunrise-to-sunset daylight in Nizhny Novgorod lasts 9 hours 37 minutes today. Across the June and December solstices that daylight span differs by about 10 hours 50 minutes at this latitude. That helps explain why Ramadan feels very different when the lunar month returns in another season, but it should not be read as the fasting duration because Fajr occurs before sunrise.
For comparison, sunset in Yakutsk is 4:33 pm today, 362 minutes earlier than in Nizhny Novgorod. Travellers should therefore switch to the timetable for the place where they are actually observing the fast rather than carrying one city’s times across Russia.
This timetable uses the Karachi prayer calculation setting. The calculation notes explain how the site handles Fajr, Isha and unusual daylight conditions, so that general methodology is not repeated on every location page.
Questions People Ask
Why can twilight calculations need special handling at Nizhny Novgorod’s latitude?
If Fajr or Isha twilight cannot be resolved while sunrise and sunset still occur, the calculator uses one-seventh of the night for the missing boundary. During polar day or polar night the fallback can remain unavailable. Local religious guidance should take precedence.
