Frequently asked questions

What is the Qibla direction in Bursa?

The Qibla direction in Bursa is 150.8° (south-east) measured clockwise from true north. The Kaaba in Makkah is about 2,323 km away along the shortest path.

How do I find the Qibla in Bursa with a compass?

Point your compass to 151° from north. A magnetic compass reads from magnetic north, so apply the local magnetic declination, or simply use a phone compass that corrects it for you, such as the Qibla compass in Muflihin Pro.

Why does the Qibla from Bursa not look straight on a flat map?

The shortest route between two points on the Earth is a great-circle arc, which looks curved on a flat map. The Qibla is the initial direction of that arc, which is why it can point in a different direction than a straight line drawn on a map.

Is the Qibla direction the same all over Türkiye?

No. The angle changes with your position, so Bursa has its own bearing (151°). Other cities in Türkiye have slightly different angles, listed below.

Can I find the Qibla with the sun?

Yes, twice a year the sun is directly above the Kaaba, around 27–28 May and 15–16 July (about 12:18 and 12:27 Makkah time). At that moment the shadow of any upright object points directly away from the Qibla.
