What you will see
Al ‘Azīzīyah is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 13:15:51 local time, the Moon hides 55.4% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 12:02:47 and ends at 14:24:36, 2 h 22 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 68° above the horizon, towards the south-west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Al ‘Azīzīyah.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 1,240 km south-west of Al ‘Azīzīyah.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Al Quşayr, about 1,288 km south-west, where totality lasts 2 m 19 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
