Summary
The article states that Stellarium is very suitable for learning ilmu falak. It is a free virtual planetarium program that shows the positions of celestial objects in a three-dimensional view. It combines astronomy, surveying, geography, mathematics and IT, and helps overcome the difficulty of visualising the sky and the movement of celestial objects.
