Ma assallam...
I got into this problem last time when I want to check the direction of qibla from inside my room.. The typical qibla compass that i have seem does not work properly, the needle not pointing to the same position, when i move around... Perhaps the room is built with too much steel rods inside the wall.. or interference from any electromagnetic source, which I am sure not strong enough to cause any wrong pointing of the compass needle.. ..
Or simply the room is haunted.. hehehe.. I watch Discovery channel they said that supernatural beings emit electromagnetic radiation.. sort of ectoplasma in "Ghostbuster"... good job Dr Egone..
So as usual,.. i refer to the most trusted.. and can be untrusted... source.. WWW.. so far this is the most useful site http://www.qiblalocator.com/#
The website help us in finding the direction of Qibla, without using compass.. but if you have compass it's better because you can compare with the result bearing.
Just type in your address.. place.. it will overlay a direction to Makkah on top of the map (Google Map).. You can put the cross hair on top of your house, office, etc.. and the red line will show the Qibla direction. Since the line will cross structure that's familiar (like tall building, funny looking tower, strange tree) to you in your area.. you can use that structure as guide for your Qibla direction ...from your cross hair position...
For me, it's a very useful application,... May Allah bless the creator
You need to be patient, since sometime the application does not recognise your location...
I try checking the important Mosque in Malaysia.. and at my kampung... they pointed correctly....
