Find Your Qiblah Direction

By Kamal Mustafa

Anywhere (in this small world now), if you have Internet and you want to know the Qiblah direction, please follow the following steps:

1. Go for this website: http://www.qiblalocator.com

2. This site needs an advanced copy of Window Explorer or Mozilla for browsing.

3. Choose Satellite, then you will see your actual location (same as in Google Earth).

4. Allocate your existing position or house.

5. You will find a (+) sign in the middle of the page. Put the centre of this sign above the location of your house.

6. You will find a red line starting from the centre of the (+) sign and end at Ka’bah (in Makkah).

7. This line is your Qibla direction.
