| 8. Prayers (Salat) |
| Hadith number 403 |
| Chapter: 32 What has been said about (facing) the Qiblah (Kabah at Makkah) and wherever considered that there was no need to repeat the Salat (prayer) if someone offered prayers by mistake facing a direction other than that of the Qiblah |
| 403 Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: While the people were offering the Fajr prayer at Quba’ (near Medina), someone came to them and said: “It has been revealed to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) tonight, and he has been ordered to pray facing the Ka`ba.” So turn your faces to the Ka`ba. Those people were facing Sham (Jerusalem) so they turned their faces towards Ka`ba (at Mecca). |
