Agensi Berita Arab Saudi SAUDI GAZETTE pada 26 NOVEMBER 2018 melaporkan Majed Abu Zahira, presiden Persatuan Astronomi Jeddah, mengatakan bahawa orang ramai di Makkah dapat melihat dengan mata kasar keadaan bulan yang muncul secara menegak di atas Masjidil Haram di hadapan bintang-bintang kembar.
"Fenomena ini membantu umat Islam dari seluruh pelosok dunia mencari arah kiblat (arah yang dihadapi umat Islam ketika melakukan solat).
"Begitu juga, matahari datang secara langsung di atas Kaabah dua kali setahun. Apabila penjajaran ini berlaku, Kaaba tidak mempunyai bayangan.

Moon comes directly above Kaaba
The sky of Makkah witnessed a rare celestial phenomenon early Monday morning when the moon came above the Holy Kaaba.
Majed Abu Zahira, president of the Jeddah Astronomy Association, said that people of Makkah were able to see with naked eyes the moon that appeared vertically above the Grand Mosque in front of the constellations of the twin stars.
“This phenomenon helps Muslims from all corners of the world locate the direction of the Qibla (the direction to which Muslims face while performing prayer). Similarly, the sun comes directly over the Kaaba twice a year. When this alignment occurs, the Kaaba casts no shadow. — Okaz photo
