Ghubaysh lies 675 km south-west of Khartoum, so Dhuhr in Ghubaysh is called about 21 minutes later than in Khartoum. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, which is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Ghubaysh.
Finding the Qibla from Ghubaysh
From Ghubaysh you pray towards the north-east, at an angle of 50.5° from true north; the Kaaba is 1,680 km away. We computed this angle with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Ghubaysh and those of the Kaaba (21.4225° N, 39.8262° E).
