Sun's alignment with the Kaaba precisely determines the Qibla direction
The phenomenon of the sun aligning with the Kaaba occurs twice a year and provides an accurate method for determining the Qibla direction. It takes place on either May 26 or 27 and July 14 or 15 at 12:27 PM Mecca time. This can be observed directly through the shadows cast by objects, making it more precise than compasses and smart applications. In the kingdom, it is believed that the Qibla direction is approximately 246 degrees, corresponding to the moment of alignment.
