| Chapter: 29 The Qiblah for the people of Al-Madina, Sham and the East. |
| 394 Narrated Abu Aiyub Al-Ansari: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “While defecating, neither face nor turn your back to the Qibla but face either east or west.” Abu Aiyub added. “When we arrived in Sham we came across some lavatories facing the Qibla; therefore we turned ourselves while using them and asked for Allah’s forgiveness.” |
