Qibla direction in Kuching

N

292° W

From Kuching, the Kaaba in Makkah lies at 292° (W), measured clockwise from true north. It is about 7,931 km away as the crow flies.

A phone compass points to magnetic north, which differs by a few degrees depending on where you are. The qibla compass in Nur corrects for that.

Ramadan

Ramadan 1448 begins on Monday, 8 February 2027 by the Umm al-Qura calendar. On the first day the fast in Kuching lasts about 13 h 23 min (Fajr 05:32 to Maghrib 18:55). Many mosques follow the moon sighting, so the start can differ by a day.

How these times are calculated

Calculation method: MUIS / JAKIM / Kemenag (Fajr 20°, Isha 18°). Asr by the standard rule (shadow equal to the object's length).

Why do apps and mosques show different times?

  • Fajr and Isha depend on how far the sun must be below the horizon. Timetables use different angles, usually between 15° and 20°. One degree can easily mean five minutes.
  • There are two rules for Asr: standard (shadow as long as the object; Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) and Hanafi (twice the length). Hanafi Asr is later.
  • In summer it never gets fully dark at night in the UK and much of Europe. A fallback rule is needed then, such as a third of the night, and every timetable handles it a little differently.
  • Many mosques publish their own times and round or shift them by a few minutes. When in doubt, follow your mosque's timetable.

In the app you can pick your mosque's method under Settings → Calculation, switch Asr to Hanafi and shift every time by the minute.
