What's on it

Thirteen cities. One direction.

Each city shows its Qibla from true north, its compass angle and its distance to Makkah. Every line follows the shortest path over the Earth, which is why New York faces north-east.

Questions

Good to know.

What size is the canvas, and how do I hang it?

It's 20 × 28 in (51 × 71 cm), portrait, and 1.25 in deep. The canvas is hand-stretched over solid wood bars, with the sides finished in a matching tone, and mounting brackets are included. No frame needed.

How accurate are the angles?

Each true-north angle is calculated along the great circle, the shortest path over the Earth from the city to the Ka’bah. Those angles never change.

Compass angles also allow for magnetic declination, which drifts slowly over the years. For the exact direction where you stand, use a Qibla compass or our interactive globe.

You can explore it all on the interactive page.

How long does delivery take?

Every piece is printed and made fresh for you after you order, usually within 2 to 5 working days. It's then shipped with tracking, and we email you the tracking link as soon as it leaves.

Delivery time depends on where you live, and you'll see the shipping options at checkout.

What if it arrives damaged?

Email a photo to [email protected] and we'll make it right. See our returns policy for the details.

Can I order more than one, or for a school or masjid?

Yes. Add as many as you like to your cart. For larger orders, email [email protected].

Which format should I choose?

A1 framed poster ($139): the largest, in a real wood frame, ready to hang.

Canvas ($99): 20 × 28 in, soft texture and no glare, no frame needed.

Digital download ($8): a file to print yourself, the most affordable way to have it.
