Prayer Times in Dorūd, Iran
Prayer times in Dorūd are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (33.49°N). We use the Tehran method, the one followed across Iran. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.
Dorūd's times use the Tehran method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Iran. They are drawn from Dorūd's own coordinates (33.4922°N, 49.0616°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.
How Dorūd's prayer times are worked out
From Dorūd, the Qibla is 216° from true north. Face southwest to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 1,620 km (1,007 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Dorūd's own coordinates (33.49°N, 49.06°E), not a national average. That is why Dorūd's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Dorūd timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Dorūd lies well west inside its Tehran time zone. So the sun peaks about 21 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 11:58 AM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 16h 24m near June down to 11h 43m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Dorūd come from the Institute of Geophysics, Tehran. The Tehran method sets Fajr when the sun is 17.7° below the horizon, and Isha at 14°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Borūjerd, Alīgūdarz and Khorramabad. Each is only a few minutes off Dorūd's clock.

Iranian prayer times work differently
Iran follows Ja'fari (Twelver Shia) fiqh, and its prayer times are not simply a variant of the Sunni ones — the rules themselves differ. Asr does not wait for a shadow to reach one or two object-lengths. Its time begins after the interval needed to pray Dhuhr. In practice Dhuhr and Asr are prayed back to back. Maghrib differs too. Rather than beginning at sunset, it is delayed until the redness in the eastern sky has passed overhead. In practice that is implemented as the sun sitting roughly 4 to 4.5 degrees below the horizon. Maghrib and Isha are then typically combined. The practical result is that many Iranians pray in three sittings a day rather than five. The national reference is the Institute of Geophysics at the University of Tehran (Fajr 17.7°, Isha 14°), the method used on this page.
Mashhad, Isfahan and the shrines
The Imam Reza Shrine in Mashhad is the spiritual centre of Iranian Shia life. Its complex covers about 1.2 million square metres. That makes it the largest mosque in the world by area, after the sanctuaries of Mecca and Medina. It draws roughly 30 million pilgrims a year, the most visited pilgrimage site in Islam after the Hajj. Within the same complex stands the Goharshad Mosque, commissioned by the Timurid empress Goharshad and completed around 1430. In Isfahan, the Shah (Imam) Mosque on Naqsh-e Jahan Square was begun in 1611. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and among the finest works of Safavid architecture.
