Menabe is located 370 km south-west of Antananarivo, so Dhuhr in Menabe comes roughly 13 minutes later than in Antananarivo. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Menabe.

In Menabe you face towards the north, at an angle of 353.7° from true north; the Kaaba is 4,664 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Menabe and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E).
