Beit Hanoun is located 69 km west of Şūr Bāhir, so Dhuhr in Beit Hanoun is called roughly 3 minutes later than in Şūr Bāhir. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude shifts solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Beit Hanoun.
