Whoa, thats amaaaaaazing, look at it!

At first i didnt realy understand it, but that is literally the centre, the Globe in that position shows all the lands. You cant tilt the Earth in any other way to make all the lands show, accept that Makkah is in the centre!

Sorry, I thought that was the question.
The Earth is sphere-like, it doesn't have a geographical centre. There's the poles though.
The centre of the Earth is somewhere in the inner core.
 
Greetings,

The centre of the Earth is its core, isn't it?

All other speculation is nonsense. The surface of the Earth doesn't have a 'centre' pretty much by definition.

Peace
 
Professor Lidenbrock journeyed to the centre of the Earth.

There he found a thing called 'The Topic'.

Betcha glad I ain't Jules Verne, eh?

that diagram proves nothing but the fact that in America you have to face north to pray towards qibla rather than southeast as it seems from a mecator map.

It is intentionally distorted so that all the land shows at the same time, and so that Makkah is in the centre. They needed to distort it so the diagram would work. Somebody just took it out of the proper context and pretended it was proof that Makkah is at the 'centre' of the world.
