How to use this bearing
A phone compass shows magnetic north, which differs slightly from true north in Pakistan.
- Stand away from metal, speakers and electronics, then let your compass settle before reading it.
- Magnetic declination in Pakistan is roughly 1–3° east, so a magnetic compass reading of about 258° corresponds to the true bearing of 259.6°.
- Once you have the direction, mark it against a wall or window so you do not need the compass again.

Qibla questions
Which way is Qibla from Kamoke?
259.6° from true north, which is broadly west. Every Pakistani city faces west or south-west because Makkah lies west of Pakistan.
Why do apps show slightly different numbers?
Some apps report a magnetic bearing and some a true bearing, and rounding of city coordinates shifts the figure by a fraction of a degree. A difference under 2° does not affect the validity of prayer.
Does the Qibla change during the year?
No. It is a fixed geographic direction. Only your own location changes it.
