Compared with Khartoum, Dhuhr in Red Sea comes roughly 12 minutes earlier than in Khartoum, and on the 21 June Maghrib is called 4 minutes earlier than in the capital. Red Sea is 596 km from the capital, towards the north-east. That is why we calculate each place with its own coordinates instead of using one timetable for the whole country.
Finding the Qibla from Red Sea
From Red Sea you face towards the east, at an angle of 68.8° from true north; the Kaaba is 462 km away. This bearing is calculated with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Red Sea 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.
