حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ صَلَّيْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ ـ أَوْ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ ـ شَهْرًا، ثُمَّ صَرَفَهُ نَحْوَ الْقِبْلَةِ.

وَلِكُلٍّ وِّجْهَةٌ هُوَ مُوَلِّيْهَا فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَيْرٰتِ ط صـ أَيْنَ مَا تَكُوْنُوْا يَأْتِ بِكُمُ اللهُ جَمِيْعًا ط إِنَّ اللهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ (148)). ‘‘আর প্রত্যেকেরই রয়েছে একটি দিক, যেদিকে সে মুখ করে। সুতরাং তোমরা সৎকাজে প্রতিযোগিতায় এগিয়ে যাও। যেখানেই তোমরা থাক না কেন, আল্লাহ তোমাদের সবাইকে একত্র সমবেত করবেন। নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ সর্ববিষয়ে সর্বশক্তিমান।’’ (সূরাহ আল-বাকারাহ ২/১৪৮) ৪৪৯২. বারাআ (ইবনু ‘আযিব) (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমরা নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর সঙ্গে ষোল অথবা সতের মাস ব্যাপী (মদিনা্তে) বাইতুল মাকদাসের দিকে মুখ করে সালাত আদায় করেছি। তারপর আল্লাহ তাঁকে কা‘বার পানে ফিরিয়ে দেন। [৪০] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৪১৩৪, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
