Prayer times in Shahr-e Herāt — common questions

What time is Fajr in Shahr-e Herāt today?

Fajr in Shahr-e Herāt begins at 03:45 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.

Which direction is the Qibla from Shahr-e Herāt?

From Shahr-e Herāt, the Qibla is 240.0° from true north — roughly WSW. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.

Which calculation method is used for Shahr-e Herāt?

These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across Iran. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.

How far is Shahr-e Herāt from Makkah?

Shahr-e Herāt lies approximately 1742 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.

How much does daylight change through the year in Shahr-e Herāt?

Day length in Shahr-e Herāt ranges from about 10.2 hours at midwinter to 14.1 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 3.9 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
