Qibla in Ajloun and distance to Makkah
In Ajloun you pray towards the south, at an angle of 160.6° from true north; the Kaaba is 1,278 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Ajloun and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E). Note that a compass points to magnetic north, which can differ by a few degrees from true north.
