Frequently Asked Questions

How can I find Qibla direction online?
Simply allow location access when prompted, and our tool will automatically calculate and display your Qibla direction using GPS technology. No download or installation required.
Is this Qibla accurate?
Yes, our Qibla finder uses precise GPS coordinates and advanced geospatial calculations to provide the most accurate Qibla direction. The calculation accounts for the Earth's curvature and your exact location.
Why does my phone compass fluctuate?
Phone compasses can be affected by magnetic interference from nearby metal objects, electronic devices, or the Earth's magnetic field variations. Calibrating your device and moving away from interference sources can help stabilize the reading.
Do I need internet to find Qibla?
Yes, you need an internet connection to load the tool initially. However, once loaded, the Qibla calculation uses your device's GPS, which works offline. For best results, ensure location services are enabled.
Can I use this Qibla finder on my phone?
Yes, our Qibla finder is fully optimized for mobile devices and works on all modern smartphones and tablets. The AR camera view provides the best experience on mobile devices.
What if my location is not accurate?
If your GPS location seems inaccurate, try moving to an open area with a clear view of the sky. Ensure location permissions are granted and high accuracy mode is enabled in your device settings.
Does this work worldwide?
Yes, our Qibla finder works from any location worldwide. The tool calculates the great-circle bearing to Makkah from anywhere on Earth, providing accurate Qibla direction regardless of your location.
Is the Qibla direction the same for everyone?
No, Qibla direction varies based on your geographic location. While all Muslims face the Kaaba, the actual direction (north, south, east, west, or any angle in between) depends on where you are located relative to Makkah.
What is the Kaaba?
The Kaaba is a cube-shaped building located in the center of the Grand Mosque (Masjid al-Haram) in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. It is the most sacred site in Islam and the direction toward which all Muslims face during prayer.
How often should I check my Qibla direction?
You should check your Qibla direction whenever you're in a new location or if you're unsure of the direction. For your home or regular prayer location, you only need to determine it once and can mark it for future reference.
Does Qibla direction change?
The Qibla direction for a specific location remains constant. However, if you travel to a different location, the Qibla direction will change based on your new geographic position relative to Makkah.
What to do if compass doesn't work?
If your device's compass is fluctuating or not working properly, try calibrating your device by moving it in a figure-8 motion, move away from magnetic interference (metal objects, electronics), ensure location services are enabled, and use our AR camera view which provides visual guidance even without a perfect compass.

How to Determine Qibla Direction Online

Qibla direction is the direction Muslims face during prayer, towards the Kaaba in Makkah. Our online Qibla finder uses GPS technology to calculate the exact angle from your current location to the Kaaba, providing you with an accurate Qibla direction instantly.

Why Qibla Direction Matters for Muslims

Facing the Qibla (the direction of the Kaaba in Makkah) is a fundamental requirement for performing Salah (prayer) in Islam. The Qibla direction unites Muslims worldwide in prayer, all facing the same sacred point. Whether you're at home, traveling, or in a new location, knowing the correct Qibla direction is essential for proper worship.

How Qibla is Calculated

Our Qibla calculator uses advanced geospatial algorithms to determine the great-circle bearing from your GPS coordinates to the Kaaba's coordinates (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E). The calculation accounts for the Earth's curvature and provides the most accurate Qibla direction possible.

What to Do If Compass Doesn't Work

If your device's compass is fluctuating or not working properly, try these solutions:

Differences Between North and South Hemisphere

The Qibla direction varies significantly depending on your location relative to Makkah. For locations north of Makkah, Qibla is generally southward. For locations south of Makkah, Qibla is generally northward. Our tool automatically calculates the correct direction regardless of your hemisphere.
