Re: Qibla-e-Rukh???

Peace! in addition to above post i’ll quote only these hadiths

Book ‘Shortening the Prayers (At-Taqseer)’ of Sahih Bukhari Hadith No. 199, 203 & 204.

**Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah, The Prophet used to offer the Nawafil, while riding, facing a direction other than that of the Qibla. **
**
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah The Prophet used to pray (the Nawafil) on his Mount facing east and whenever he wanted to offer the compulsory prayer, he used to dismount and face the Qibla. **

**Narrated Anas bin Sirin: We went to receive Anas bin Malik when he returned from Sham and met him at a place called 'Ain-at-Tamr. I saw him praying riding the donkey, with his face to this direction, i.e. to the left of the Qibla. I said to him, “I have seen you offering the prayer in a direction other than that of the Qibla.” He replied, “If I had not seen Allah’s Apostle doing it, I would not have done it.” **

Also about the direction of Qibla, it is mentioned in Qur’an Surah Baqarah verses No. 144 & 149.

thanks for the hadees lethal.

i think this hadees explains it really well that one can read in the other direction of qibla. ofcourse its not a choice but only when they cant find the qibla-e-rukh.
