Narrated Bara' bin `Azib: Allah's Apostle prayed facing Baitul-Maqdis for sixteen or seventeen months but he loved to face the Ka`ba (at Mecca) so Allah revealed: Verily, We have seen the turning of your face to the heaven! (2:144) So the Prophet faced the Ka`ba and the fools amongst the people namely the Jews said, What has turned them from their Qibla (Baitul-Maqdis) which they formerly observed (Allah revealed): Say: 'To Allah belongs the East and the West. He guides whom he will to a straight path'. (2:142) A man prayed with the Prophet (facing the Ka`ba) and went out. He saw some of the Ansar praying the `Asr prayer with their faces towards Baitul-Maqdis, he said, I bear witness that I prayed with Allah's Apostle facing the Ka`ba. So all the people turned their faces towards the Ka`ba.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ أَوْ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يُوَجَّهَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ قَدْ نَرَى تَقَلُّبَ وَجْهِكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ سورة البقرة آية 144 ، فَتَوَجَّهَ نَحْوَ الْكَعْبَةِ ، وَقَالَ السُّفَهَاءُ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَهُمْ الْيَهُودُ : مَا وَلَّاهُمْ عَنْ قِبْلَتِهِمُ الَّتِي كَانُوا عَلَيْهَا ، قُلْ لِلَّهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَالْمَغْرِبُ يَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ سورة البقرة آية 142 ، فَصَلَّى مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ بَعْدَ مَا صَلَّى ، فَمَرَّ عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ ، فَقَالَ : هُوَ يَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَنَّهُ تَوَجَّهَ نَحْوَ الْكَعْبَةِ فَتَحَرَّفَ الْقَوْمُ حَتَّى تَوَجَّهُوا نَحْوَ الْكَعْبَةِ .
ہم سے عبداللہ بن رجاء نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا ہم سے اسرائیل بن یونس نے بیان کیا، کہا انہوں نے ابواسحاق سے بیان کیا، کہا انہوں نے براء بن عازب رضی اللہ عنہما سے کہ   نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے سولہ یا سترہ ماہ تک بیت المقدس کی طرف منہ کر کے نمازیں پڑھیں اور رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ( دل سے ) چاہتے تھے کہ کعبہ کی طرف منہ کر کے نماز پڑھیں۔ آخر اللہ تعالیٰ نے یہ آیت نازل فرمائی ”ہم آپ کا آسمان کی طرف باربار چہرہ اٹھانا دیکھتے ہیں۔ پھر آپ نے کعبہ کی طرف منہ کر لیا اور احمقوں نے جو یہودی تھے کہنا شروع کیا کہ انہیں اگلے قبلہ سے کس چیز نے پھیر دیا۔ آپ فرما دیجیئے کہ اللہ ہی کی ملکیت ہے مشرق اور مغرب، اللہ جس کو چاہتا ہے سیدھے راستے کی ہدایت کر دیتا ہے۔“ ( جب قبلہ بدلا تو ) ایک شخص نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے ساتھ نماز پڑھی پھر نماز کے بعد وہ چلا اور انصار کی ایک جماعت پر اس کا گزر ہوا جو عصر کی نماز بیت المقدس کی طرف منہ کر کے پڑھ رہے تھے۔ اس شخص نے کہا کہ میں گواہی دیتا ہوں کہ میں نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے ساتھ وہ نماز پڑھی ہے جس میں آپ نے موجودہ قبلہ ( کعبہ ) کی طرف منہ کر کے نماز پڑھی ہے۔ پھر وہ جماعت ( نماز کی حالت میں ہی ) مڑ گئی اور کعبہ کی طرف منہ کر لیا۔

sahih-bukhari-401

Narrated `Abdullah: The Prophet prayed (and the sub-narrator Ibrahim said, I do not know whether he prayed more or less than usual ), and when he had finished the prayers he was asked, O Allah's Apostle! Has there been any change in the prayers? He said, What is it?' The people said, You have prayed so much and so much. So the Prophet bent his legs, faced the Qibla and performed two prostration's (of Sahu) and finished his prayers with Taslim (by turning his face to right and left saying: 'As-Salamu `Alaikum- Warahmat-ullah'). When he turned his face to us he said, If there had been anything changed in the prayer, surely I would have informed you but I am a human being like you and liable to forget like you. So if I forget remind me and if anyone of you is doubtful about his prayer, he should follow what he thinks to be correct and complete his prayer accordingly and finish it and do two prostrations (of Sahu).

Narrated `Umar (bin Al-Khattab): My Lord agreed with me in three things: -1. I said, O Allah's Apostle, I wish we took the station of Abraham as our praying place (for some of our prayers). So came the Divine Inspiration: And take you (people) the station of Abraham as a place of prayer (for some of your prayers e.g. two rak`at of Tawaf of Ka`ba) . (2.125) -2. And as regards the (verse of) the veiling of the women, I said, 'O Allah's Apostle! I wish you ordered your wives to cover themselves from the men because good and bad ones talk to them.' So the verse of the veiling of the women was revealed. -3. Once the wives of the Prophet made a united front against the Prophet and I said to them, 'It may be if he (the Prophet) divorced you, (all) that his Lord (Allah) will give him instead of you wives better than you.' So this verse (the same as I had said) was revealed. (66.5). Narrated Anas: as above (395).

sahih-bukhari-405

Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet saw some sputum in the direction of the Qibla (on the wall of the mosque) and he disliked that and the sign of disgust was apparent from his face. So he got up and scraped it off with his hand and said, Whenever anyone of you stands for the prayer, he is speaking in private to his Lord or his Lord is between him and his Qibla. So, none of you should spit in the direction of the Qibla but one can spit to the left or under his foot. The Prophet then took the corner of his sheet and spat in it and folded it and said, Or you can do this.
