Perlis is located 402 km north-west of Kuala Lumpur, so Dhuhr in Perlis is called about 6 minutes later than in Kuala Lumpur. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude shifts solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Perlis.
Finding the Qibla from Perlis
From Perlis you pray towards the west, at an angle of 291.0° from true north; the Kaaba is 6,684 km away.
