Finding the Qibla from Munich
From Munich you pray towards the south-east, at an angle of 129.8° from true north; the Kaaba is 3,891 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Munich 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.
