Muslims at prayer try to face the Great Mosque in Mecca. Since today Muslims might be anywhere in the world, this direction is officially along a Great Circle route, which is a "straight line" on the curved surface of the world. For example, Muslims in New York face the Northeast, even though Mecca is considerably to the South.
Interestingly, Muslims used to pray in the direction of Jerusalem, but Mohammed changed this to his birth city, al-Makkah (Mecca).
