The qibla is the direction of the Kaaba in Makkah, computed as a great-circle bearing from Perth (-31.9505°, 115.8605°). Use a compass and face the computed bearing from true north.

Formula

bearing = atan2( sin(dLng), cos(lat) * tan(21.4225) - sin(lat) * cos(dLng) )
dLng = 39.8262 - longitude   (Kaaba: 21.4225 N, 39.8262 E)
distance = 6371 * 2 * atan2( sqrt(a), sqrt(1-a) )  (great-circle, km)

Example

From Perth: bearing = 295.39 degrees = North-West. Distance = 10,024 km.
