Translation text: وكان صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: ما بين المشرق والمغرب قبله And he ﷺ used to say: What is between the East and the West is Qiblah (direction of prayer).   وهذا خاصٌ لمن يكون شمال مكة مثل اهل المدينة واهل الشام، وكذلك من يكون جنوب مكة مثل اهل اليمن And this is specific for those who are north of Mecca, like the people of Medina and the people of Al-shaam (the Levant), as well as those who are south of Mecca, like the people of Yemen.   واما من كان في الشرق فقبلته في الغرب فما بين الشمال والجنوب قبلته، ومن كان في الغرب فقبلته الشرق ما بين الشمال والجنوب.  As for those who are in the East, their Qiblah lies in the West, so his Qiblah is between the North and South. And those in the West, their Qiblah lies in the east, between north and south.   ولا يكون ظاهرياً، واحد من مشايخ اهل الحديث وانا ما درست عليه، ولكني رأيته، يقولون انه كان يصلي يتوجه إلى الشمال والجنوب وهو في أقاصي بلاد باكستان And one should not be Thahiri (takes all Hadeeths literally with no exceptions). One of the sheikhs of hadith - and I did not study under him, But I saw him – it’s said that he used to pray facing the North and South while he was in the farthest spots of the country of Pakistan.   فقيل له يا شيخ كيف تتجه إلى الشمال والجنوب؟ إذا توجهت للشمال يكون قبلتك كذا الصين وإذا توجهت إلى الجنوب يكون قبلتك إلى البحر فقال الحديث: ما بين المشرق والمغرب قبله.  He was told, Sheikh, how can you face the North and South? If you face the North, your Qiblah is China, and if you face the South, your Qiblah is the sea. So, he quoted the hadith: What is between the East and the West is a Qiblah.   هذا لابد من التنبه لأسباب الورود، الخطاب لأهل المدينة ومن في حكمهم ما يجوز أن نأخذ بالظاهرية هذهِ So, it is necessary to pay attention to the reasons (context) of the mentioning’s (narrations). The speech addresses the people of Medinah and those who are in similar conditions. It is not permissible to adopt this Thahiri way! ----------------------------------------------------- Rabbaniyeen ربانيين 🔴اليوتيوب🔴👇 https://youtube.com/channel/UCSZQ94R_9fXNumssaa5BAkg 🔴الانستجرام🔴👇 https://www.instagram.com/rabbaniyeen/ 🔴التيليغرام🔴👇 https://t.me/Rabbaniyeen
