We have certainly seen the turning of your face, [O Muhammad], toward the heaven, and We will surely turn you to a qiblah (the direction in prayer) with which you will be pleased. So turn your face toward al-Masjid al-Haram (Ka’bah);. And wherever you [believers] are, turn your faces toward it [in prayer]. Indeed, those who have been given the Scripture well know that it is the truth from their Lord. And Allah is not unaware of what they do.
