Qibla direction in Pakistan

قبلہ رخ

Bearing

The Qibla from Pakistan is a little south of west — between about 250° (north of the country) and 268° (Karachi) from true north. Pick your city for its exact bearing, or use your location.

From your location: from true north.

How accurate is this?

  • The bearing is exact for the city centre (computed on the sphere); across a city it changes by less than half a degree.
  • A phone compass is often off by 5–20°, near metal, cars, speakers and wiring. Calibrate it (move the phone in a figure 8), hold it flat and away from metal.
  • Compasses point to magnetic north, a few degrees from true north in Pakistan. For a mosque or a fixed prayer place, confirm with a qualified person or a proper survey.
