Abstract


The direction of the Qibla is one of the important elements in carrying out prayer for Muslims. Accuracy in determining the direction of the Qibla is a must so that worship can be carried out according to sharia. There is a need to provide a simple, inexpensive, and easily accessible alternative solution to determine the direction of the Qibla. One tool that can be utilized is spreadsheet software, such as Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Spreadsheets have become a versatile tool in various fields, including finance, education, and science. Spreadsheets can display mathematical representations in tables so that they can be better understood. This simulation consists of two simulations, namely the first displays a simulation of the direction of the Qibla in one location, and the second displays a simulation of the direction of the Qibla in the Indonesian region. The first simulation can display the direction of the Qibla anywhere on the surface of the earth. The direction of the Qibla is displayed in degrees and degrees, minutes, seconds. The second simulation displays a graph of the direction of the Qibla at various latitudes in the Indonesian region.
