Current time in Mashhad

Local time in Mashhad falls within the Asia/Tehran zone. The clock and date at the top of this page update live to this timezone, so the readings stay accurate wherever you are.

Sitting at a latitude of about 36.3° in the northern hemisphere, Mashhad's day length varies clearly between the long days of summer and the shorter days of winter. That is why its sunrise, sunset and day-length figures change from month to month, and why prayer times here follow the position of the sun rather than a fixed clock.

The prayer times shown for Mashhad are calculated using the Institute of Geophysics, University of Tehran. The five daily prayers track the sun, so each one drifts a little earlier or later as the seasons turn. For the full picture you can open the monthly timetable, the live prayer clock, or the Qibla direction for Mashhad from the tools on this site.
