Is the Qibla in Bayhan, Yemen, at 60 or 45 degrees?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The deviation mentioned is a slight deviation that does not take the worshiper out of the direction of the Kaaba. Therefore, it is not permissible to stir up strife and disturbances because of it. The mosque's occupants should gather to resolve this issue using instruments that determine the Qibla, such as a compass.
