About Shiraz

Shiraz is the capital of Fars province and the fifth-most-populous city in Iran, with a population of around 848,000 in the city itself. Located in the southwest of the country, it sits at roughly 1,500 metres above sea level along the Khoshk, a seasonal river that runs through the area. The wider Fars region is historically known by the exonym Persia proper, and Shiraz has long been one of its principal cultural and commercial centres.
The city enjoys a moderate climate and has functioned as a regional trade hub for more than a thousand years. Its elevated setting on the southern Iranian plateau gives it warm summers and cool winters, a rhythm that is reflected in the way daily prayer times shift across the seasons for the local Muslim community.
Prayer Times in Shiraz
Shiraz observes Iran Standard Time (UTC+3:30) year-round with no daylight saving, so prayer times shift gradually with the seasons rather than jumping by an hour in spring and autumn. At roughly 29.6 degrees north, the city sees a moderate seasonal swing: long summer days push Fajr earlier and Isha later into the evening, while shorter winter days bring Maghrib to the late afternoon. Times on this page are calculated using the Institute of Geophysics, University of Tehran method, the standard reference used across Iran.
Ramadan in Shiraz
During Ramadan, Muslims in Shiraz observe the daily fast from Fajr until Maghrib. Because the city keeps Iran Standard Time (UTC+3:30) all year, the start and end of the fast each day are governed purely by the natural movement of the sun rather than by any clock change. The length of the fasting day depends on which season Ramadan falls in.
At about 29.6 degrees north, Shiraz experiences a moderate difference between its longest summer and shortest winter days. When Ramadan falls in summer, the fast runs longer as Fajr arrives early and Maghrib comes late; in winter it is noticeably shorter. The daily timetable on this page tracks Suhur (ending at Fajr) and Iftar (at Maghrib) so worshippers can plan accordingly.
