حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ قَزَعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ بَيْنَا النَّاسُ بِقُبَاءٍ فِي صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ إِذْ جَاءَهُمْ آتٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَدْ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ اللَّيْلَةَ قُرْآنٌ، وَقَدْ أُمِرَ أَنْ يَسْتَقْبِلَ الْكَعْبَةَ فَاسْتَقْبِلُوهَا. وَكَانَتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ إِلَى الشَّأْمِ فَاسْتَدَارُوا إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ.

Narrator: Ibn `Umar

English translation
Narrated Ibn `Umar: While some people were offering Fajr prayer at Quba' (mosque), some-one came to them and said, "Tonight some Qur'anic Verses have been revealed to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he has been ordered to face the Ka`ba (at Mecca) (during prayers), so you too should turn your faces towards it." At that time their faces were towards Sham (Jerusalem) so they turned towards the Ka`ba (at Mecca)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
(اَلَّذِيْنَ اٰتَيْنَاهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ يَعْرِفُوْنَه” كَمَا يَعْرِفُوْنَ أَبْنَآءَهُمْ ط وَإِنَّ فَرِيْقًا مِّنْهُمْ لَيَكْتُمُوْنَ الْحَقَّ) إِلَى قَوْلِهِ : (فَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِيْنَ). ‘‘যাদের আমি কিতাব দিয়েছি তারা তাকে সেরূপ চেনে, যেরূপ তারা তাদের পুত্রদের চেনে। আর তাদের একদল জেনেশুনে নিশ্চিতভাবে সত্য গোপন করে। প্রকৃত সত্য তো তা, যা তোমার পালনকর্তার তরফ থেকে প্রাপ্ত। কাজেই তুমি সন্দিহানদের দলভুক্ত হয়ো না।’’ (সূরাহ আল-বাকারাহ ২/১৪৬-১৪৭) ৪৪৯১. ইবনু ‘উমার (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, একদা লোকেরা কুবা মসজিদে ফজরের সালাতে ছিলেন, তখন তাদের কাছে একজন আগন্তুক এসে বললেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর প্রতি এ রাতে কুরআন (এর আয়াত) অবতীর্ণ করা হয়েছে, আর এতে তিনি কা‘বার দিকে মুখ ফিরানোর জন্য নির্দেশিত হয়েছেন। কাজেই আপনারা কা’বার দিকে মুখ ঘুরিয়ে নিন। আর তখন তাদের মুখ শামের দিকে ছিল। তখন তারা কা‘বার দিকে ঘুরে গেলেন। [৪০৩] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৪১৩৩, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
