Sarh lies 491 km south-east of N'Djamena, so Dhuhr in Sarh comes about 13 minutes earlier than in N'Djamena. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Sarh.
Finding the Qibla from Sarh
From Sarh you pray towards the north-east, at an angle of 56.8° from true north; the Kaaba is 2,669 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Sarh and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E). Remember that a compass points to magnetic north, which can differ by a few degrees from true north.
