we need to read and understand the order given to us the QUR'AN and spread the TRUE message of ISLAM , The love for your fellow human, the respect for WOMEN, making world a Better Place কাবার দিকে পা দিয়া ঘুমানোর বিষয় মতামত: নেট ঘুরে কিছু উত্তর: The Best Answer I can find in here:http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/index.php?page=showfatwa&Option=FatwaId&Id=82233 Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.We don't know any authentic Hadith from the Prophet or a saying of any of his companions specifying the direction of the legs or the head while the person is sleeping. Some Fuqha wrote in their books that facing Qiblah while sleeping is desirable. Then naturally one's legs will not be in the direction of Qiblah. We do not know the reference for this, they might have compared the condition of a sleeping person to that of a dead person who should be faced to Qiblah or they might have concluded this point considering the merits and state of Qiblah. What is proved from the Prophet is that when he went to bed, he used to sleep on his right side and then say, "Allahumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika, wa wajjahttu wajhi ilaika, wa fauwadtu amri ilaika, wa alja'tu zahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika. La malja'a wa la manja minka illa ilaika. Amantu bikitabikal-ladhi anzalta wa nabiyikal-ladhi arsalta!"(O Allah! I have submitted my face (or, myself) to You, and I am under Your Command (i.e., depend upon You in all my affairs) and put my back to (i.e., trust in) You expecting Your reward and fearing Your punishment. There is no fleeing from You and no refuge but with You. I believe in the Book (i.e., the Qur'an) You have revealed and in Your Prophet (Muhammad) You have sent.) Allah knows best. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Second Best Answer found on http://www.7cgen.com/index.php?showtopic=35576 Some people say that you are not allowed to point your feet at the qibla while sitting down in the mosque and that it is bad adaab. Does this have any basis or is it a cultural thing or is an addition? Praise be to Allaah. Shaykh ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Humayd (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about pointing one’s feet in the direction of the qiblah. He replied: There is nothing to say that this is not allowed, but some of the scholars regarded it as makrooh (disliked) to stretch the feet out towards the Ka’bah if one is close to it; they regarded this as makrooh but not emphatically so. But if there is a mosque somewhere else and there is a Muslim there who points his feet towards the qiblah, there is no harm in that and he is not doing anything forbidden in sha Allaah, as the scholars stated. And Allaah knows best. See Fataawa al-Shaykh Ibn Humayd, p. 144 Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen was asked about pointing the feet towards the qiblah whilst sleeping. He said: There is no blame on a person if he sleeps and his feet are pointing towards the qiblah. Fataawa al-Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, 2/976. http://www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/12871 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Third Answer: Bismillah Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance) The Qibla is from amongst the symbols of Islam, which a person should show respect to. Facing one's feet towards Qibla intentionally should be avoided. Allah Taala says,"And whosoever honours the Symbols of Allâh, then it is truly from the piety of the heart." ( Surah: 22, Ayah: 32) The feet should not face the direction of the ka’bah whilst sleeping. In fact, it is not permissible to face the feet towards the ka’bah whether a person is sleeping or awake. (Shaami vol.1 pg.655; HM Saeed) And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

There is a very big Mosque in Mecca. Guru Nanak and Mardana were very tired after long travels. They went to the mosque and lay down to take rest. Guru Nanak's feet were towards the Kaaba in the mosque. The Kaaba is a room in the middle of the mosque and is called, 'The house of God (Allah).' A man named Rukandin was the priest of the Kaaba. He came out and saw Guru Nanak's feet towards the Kaba. He was very angry. He at once shouted. "Don't you know this is the house of God, you fool? Why are you lying with your feet towards the Kaaba?" Guru Nanak woke up. He said, "O sir, I'm sorry I didn't know it. I was tired so I just lay down and fell asleep. Could you turn my legs to the side in which there's no God?" Rukandin at once caught hold of his legs and dragged them to the other side. He saw that the Kaaba still stood before Guru Nanak's feet. Then he gave another pull but to his great surprise, he saw the Kaaba again towards the Guru's feet. He was so upset that he could not speak. Guru Nanak said, "Rukandin. God does not live in one place. He lives everywhere.". A crowd of people gathered around them. They called Guru Nanak, 'Baba Nanak'. 'Baba' means an old and wise man. "Let God's grace be the mosque, and devotion the prayer mat. Let the Quran be the good conduct. Let modesty be compassion, good manners fasting, you should be a Muslim the like of this. Let good deeds be your Kaaba and truth be your mentor. Your Kalma be your creed and prayer, God would then vindicate your honour." (Majh)
