What you will see
Dār Kulayb is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 13:35:48 local time, the Moon hides 62.2% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 12:21:18 and ends at 14:44:08, 2 h 23 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 63° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Dār Kulayb.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 1,065 km south-west of Dār Kulayb.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Al ‘Aqīq, about 1,106 km south-west, where totality lasts 2 m 22 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.
