Frequently asked questions

What is the qibla direction from Türkiye?

It depends on the city. From Istanbul it is 151.56° from true north, towards the south-east; choose your own city for its exact bearing.

How is the qibla calculated?

As the great-circle bearing from the city to the Kaaba in Makkah (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E): the shortest path over the surface of the globe, measured clockwise from true north.

How can I check the qibla without a compass?

Twice a year the sun stands directly above the Kaaba. At that moment, where the sun is up, the direction of the sun is the qibla. Each city page gives the two moments in local time.
