Al ‘Azīzīyah is located 79 km south-east of Baghdad, so Dhuhr in Al ‘Azīzīyah is called about 3 minutes earlier than in Baghdad. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude shifts solar noon by about four minutes, which is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Al ‘Azīzīyah.
