What is the Qibla?
The Qibla is the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca (Makkah) that Muslims face for the five daily prayers. Each city's Qibla is the great-circle bearing - the shortest path over the Earth's surface - expressed in degrees clockwise from true north. It is fixed for a location, so it never changes for a given city. Pick a city above for its exact bearing, distance to Mecca and a live compass, and see daily prayer times too.

Common questions
What is the Qibla?
The Qibla is the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca that Muslims face during salah (prayer).
How is the Qibla direction calculated?
It is the great-circle (shortest-path) bearing from your location to the Kaaba, given in degrees clockwise from true north.
Does the Qibla change from city to city?
Yes - the bearing depends on your position on Earth, so each city has its own Qibla angle, but it stays fixed for that city.
See how the Qibla connects to daily prayer times, calculation methods and Ramadan.
