Prayer times in Fars vary a lot over the year. Around the summer solstice (21 June) Fajr is at about 3:26 AM and Maghrib at 7:22 PM, for a day of 14 h 03 min.

Fars is located 684 km south of Tehran, so Dhuhr in Fars is called about 4 minutes earlier than in Tehran. This difference comes from longitude: each degree shifts solar noon by about four minutes, which is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Fars.
Qibla in Fars and distance to Makkah
In Fars you pray towards the south-west, at an angle of 237.4° from true north; the Kaaba is 1,565 km away. This bearing is calculated with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Fars and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E). Remember that a compass points to magnetic north, which can differ by a few degrees from true north.
Suhoor and iftar times in Fars
Ramadan in Fars: based on astronomical calculation, Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to start on 8 February 2027. At the start, suhoor ends (imsak) at 5:16 AM and the fast is broken at Maghrib, 6:01 PM, roughly 12 h 35 min of fasting. On the last day the fast lasts 13 h 21 min, longer by 47 minutes. Imsak is shown ten minutes before Fajr as a precaution; what counts for the fast is true dawn (Fajr).
