Why Must The Muslims Pray Towards The East? by georgecso(m): 9:02am On Apr 09, 2009
Announce your Niyya (intentions) silently in your heart

Make your Qibla (prayer direction) face the direction of the Ka'bah

The Qur'an: Al-Baqara 2:143-145



There must be logical reason why muslims must pray towards the east. Pls my learned mullahs and young deedats should kindly respond.

The Best Comprehensive Answer is "UNITY"

To Unite all Muslims towards One Direction i.e. the Ka'abah.

Whether you are rich, power, king, president, or saint, you must face this direction while you pray.

In my own opinion.

Ka'abah.

Thank you for your courage. The Ka'aba is then what? Because all the muslim faithful don't just face the east but also knee and bow down towards the Ka'aba. One may seem to know why bow down towards the Ka'aba? Thank you bro

1. If muslims shout allah akbar in india, nigeria, united states and uk while either protesting or killing an infidel, does allah hear them shouting allahu akbar during then.

2. if allah hears them shouting allahu akbar, during those times, does allah realise that they are most probably not facing the east or kabaah or any particular direction during those times and process of protesting or killing the infidels.

3. why then does allah still want muslims to bow towards kabaah or mecca or east during their normal period of praying to allah, does it mean their prayers and praise are only heard while facing towards the east.

1. Why dont we create a thread on YOUR doctrines? Why are you afraid to debate your own quran or even quote it? You love to rush to the bible dont you, hypocrite?

2. You dont need to beg the moderators not to lock threads discussing oops sorry bashing christian doctrines, they end up on the front pages anyway. Its the islamic ones that get us banned and the threads locked and binned.

Please go ahead. I am all yours

2. You dont need to beg the moderators not to lock threads discussing oops sorry bashing christian doctrines, they end up on the front pages anyway. Its the islamic ones that get us banned and the threads locked and binned.

I need to because its strictly going to be for you, Todak, No2atheism and myself. We will go into the doctrines of christianity starting with Easter celebration.  I will soon create threads on your doctrines, you and your folks must not run away when the heat is on because I am going to open cankerworms on your false faith which I have not done before.

Do yourself, Todak, No2atheism permit me to create threads on your faith for ONLY FOUR OF US?

You didnt have to insult him why call him the spawn of a lair Huh

Please Mukina, leave him and his folks alone and I want to beg you not to lock thread rgardless of what they may be saying please please please.

Once again David, do you care if I create threads on your faith for you and your folks against myself?
