(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 (Bait-ul-Maqdis) which they formerly observed”” (Allah re –
vealed): “Say: ‘To Allah belongs the East and the West. He guides whom he will to a straight path’.”

prayed with Allah’s Apostle facing the Ka’ba.” So all the people turned their faces towards the Ka’ba.
