From Douane you pray towards the south-east, at an angle of 112.7° from true north; the Kaaba is 3,266 km away. This bearing is calculated with spherical trigonometry from the coordinates of Douane 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.
