Sun to Align Directly Over Holy Kaaba in Makkah Today

The sun will align with the holy Kaaba at Makkah’s Grand Mosque on Monday (today) at 14:18 Pakistan Standard Time (PST) and 12:18 Saudi time.

The sun’s disc will be directly overhead the Kaaba, and for a short while, it will be shadowless.

Because of its location between the Equator and the Tropic of Cancer, the Grand Mosque experiences the celestial phenomena known as “zero shadow” twice a year. During this phenomena, the shadow of the sacred structure is temporarily removed.

The sun moves 23.5 degrees north and south of the celestial equator as a result of the Earth’s axial tilt. During the equinox, locations situated above the equator get direct sunlight.

I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
