Compared with Amman, Dhuhr in Ma'an is called roughly 1 minute later than in Amman, and on the 21 June Maghrib is called 4 minutes earlier than in the capital. Ma'an is 196 km away from the capital, towards the south. That is why we calculate every city separately rather than using one timetable for the whole country.
Qibla direction in Ma'an
From Ma'an you face towards the south-east, at an angle of 156.3° from true north; the Kaaba is 1,058 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Ma'an 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.
