Rajanpur is located 574 km south-west of Islamabad, so Dhuhr in Rajanpur is called about 11 minutes later than in Islamabad. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude shifts solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Rajanpur.
