Abstract

Determining the Qibla direction is a crucial aspect in the performance of prayer (salat) for Muslims. This study was conducted to determine the Qibla direction at a house located in Dusun Angus Tanjung RT 10/RW 05, Tanjung Bugis Village, Sambas District, Sambas Regency, West Kalimantan. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of the Qibla direction using a scientific method involving simple tools through direct observation and manual calculations based on astronomical data. The method applied includes calculating the Qibla direction using specific formulas, supported by a compass and Android-based digital devices to determine the Qibla angle from the house’s geographical coordinates. The measurement results showed that the Qibla direction aligns with the orientation of the house, with no noticeable deviation. This research is expected to provide practical understanding to the community, especially in rural areas, on how to accurately determine the Qibla direction so that prayer can be performed correctly while facing the Kaaba.

Abstract

The position of the Sun in the sky plays an important role in various fields such as astronomy, navigation, and timekeeping. This position can be determined through the measurement of the Sun’s altitude and azimuth, which are part of the horizontal coordinate system in astronomy. This study aims to determine the Sun’s altitude and azimuth at a specific time using the shadow of a vertical stick (gnomon). The observation was conducted using a direct observation method on April 6, 2025, at 13:01 WIB in Kampung Angus, Tanjung Bugis Village, Sambas. The gnomon used was 20 cm high, and its shadow measured 7.9 cm in the eastward direction. Based on this data, trigonometric calculations were performed to obtain the Sun’s altitude of 68.45° and an azimuth of 270° indicating that the Sun was positioned precisely to the west at the time of observation.
