Compass correction in Casablanca

A phone compass points to magnetic north, not true north. Magnetic north in Casablanca is currently 0.5° west of true north, so the Qibla reads as 94.1° on a magnetic compass. The live compass on Al Qibla Finder makes this correction for you automatically.

A difference of 0.5° is small: across a prayer mat it moves your direction by about 1 cm.

Find the Qibla in Casablanca with the sun

Twice a year the sun passes directly over the Kaaba. At that moment, anyone who can see the sun only needs to face it to face the Qibla, and every shadow points directly away from Makkah. No phone or compass is needed.

Casablanca time (12:26 in Makkah)

The sun stays close enough to give a useful direction for about five minutes before and after these times, on the day itself and one day either side.

The daily sun direction

On some days there is also a moment when the sun stands exactly in the Qibla direction as seen from Casablanca, or exactly opposite it. Here is today's moment:

From here the sun never lines up with the Qibla while it is above the horizon, so this method does not work. Use the compass instead.

Good to know in Casablanca

Prayer times in Morocco are set by the official authority (Morocco – Ministry of Habous). This page uses the same method, including the safety minutes they add, and is checked against their timetable.

Since 20 September 2026, Morocco uses GMT all year. There is no clock change any more, including during Ramadan. If your phone still shows the old GMT+1 time, update its software: the times on this page already use the correct legal time.

About the Hijri date

Morocco follows its own moon sighting, so the Hijri date on this page is adjusted by −1 day compared with the Umm al-Qura calendar of Saudi Arabia. It can still differ by one day from the official date at the start of a month.

Ramadan 2027 in Casablanca

Ramadan 1448 AH is expected to begin on Tuesday, February 9, 2027. The official start in Morocco depends on the moon sighting announced the evening before. Suhoor ends at Fajr and the fast is broken at Maghrib.
