ومن حيث خرجت فول وجهك شطر المسجد الحرام وحيث ما كنتم فولوا وجوهكم شطره لئلا يكون للناس عليكم حجة الا الذين ظلموا منهم فلا تخشوهم واخشوني ولاتم نعمتي عليكم ولعلكم تهتدون

So from whencesoever Thou startest forth, turn Thy face in the direction Of the Sacred Mosque; And wheresoever ye are, Turn your face thither: That there be no ground Of dispute against you Among the people, Except those of them that are Bent on wickedness; so fear Them not, but fear Me; And that I may complete My favours on you, and ye May (consent to) be guided;
