Salam, --MakNgah Sjamsir Sjarif Usually, there is a moment in each day of the year when the sun can be observed to be either in the direction to Mecca or in the direction opposite to it. However, the hour of the day is not easy to calculate and it varies according to the seasons and is also different for each place on earth. However, there are two days in the year when the hour of the day – when measured in absolute time (such as UTC) – is the same for all observers situated in the hemisphere centred on Mecca. On these days one can easily determine one's qibla within a small fraction of a degree without needing any knowledge of geometry or mathematics. The only thing that one has to do is to look at the sun at the right hour of the day and determine its compass direction. When to look As Mecca is located within the tropics there are two days in each year when the sun passes nearly exactly over the Ka`ba. This occurs on 27 or 28 May at 9:18 UTC [12:18 Saudi local time] and on 15 or 16 July at 9:27 UTC [12:27 Saudi local time]. Every Muslim who is located in the hemisphere centred on Mecca (i.e. is less as circa 10.000 km from Mecca) can determine the direction of the qibla by observing the sun on these days at the right hour. The compass direction to the sun then gives the qibla.
