Is it necessary to be cautious about the Dhuhr and Maghrib prayer times in the same way as for Fajr? If the call to prayer for Dhuhr or Maghrib is made, can I pray immediately with confidence that the time has entered, or should I also wait, for example, 10 minutes?

Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may God protect them):
The key is to have certainty that the prayer time has entered. If this certainty is achieved through the call to prayer from a trustworthy person who knows the time, then it is sufficient. Similarly, if it is confirmed through prayer time applications, that is also sufficient.
May you be successful in all good.
