To pray from Kahrīz, Iran, face 208° — that is SSW of true north. This is the shortest (great-circle) direction to the Kaaba in Mecca, calculated from Kahrīz’s coordinates (34.384°, 47.055°).

Note a magnetic compass points to magnetic north, which differs from true north by the local declination — the NURA app corrects for this automatically.
