Mecca Time
text:
Mecca Time was a proposed time standard that uses the line of longitude that goes through Mecca, Saudi Arabia as its Prime Meridian. A clock based on this meridian would be at approximately UTC+02:39:18.3. The proposal was made by Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi and other Muslim clerics meeting in Doha, Qatar on April 21, 2008 for a conference titled "Mecca: the Center of the Earth, Theory and Practice".
