No shadow of kabba - 16th July 2011
As today at 12:27pm saudi time (01:27 UAE time) the sun was above the kabba. There was no shadow of kabba at that time. I here in UAE also place stick vertically to determine the exact direction of kabba,s mean Qibla. Mashallah the shadow show me the correct direction. Please take some photos of kabba at this time and load it on website of haramain. Please convey such topics on website to produce awareness in people about such theories. Many thanks.

Jeddah, July 16: At 12:27 p.m. on Saturday, the sun will be directly above the Ka’ba during its return from the Tropic of Cancer to the Equator. The sun will cast no shadows in the Grand Mosque.
Eng. Majed Abu Zahra, Head of Jeddah Astronomy Society, said, “This phenomenon can help us determine with great accuracy of the direction of the Qibla for countries located in the sun-lit hemisphere.”
The direction of the Qibla will be exactly opposite to the vertical shadow cast in those countries at the time when it is noon in Makkah, he said.
“This is the second, and the last time, the sun becomes vertical over the Ka’ba this year. The first incident took place on May 28, when the sun moved from the Equator to the Tropic of Cancer,” Majed said.
