The most accurate method for determining the Qiblah
direction for mosques is the Sun. For most of the days at a specific time of
the day, the sun shadow of a Sundial directly faces the Qiblah or the opposite
of the S.D. shadow faces Qiblah direction. Also at noon time S.D. shadow or its
opposite points to the Geographical North . These times can be calculated for
everyday for any desired location.

Most people do not have access to
programs that calculate the time when the Sundial shadow (or the opposite)
points to the Qiblah direction; therefore, we at the Islamicfinder have decided
to provide this service to help all Muslims Insha Allah to determine the Qiblah
direction accurately provided that they use very accurate watch (or GPS timer).
