قَدۡ نَرَىٰ تَقَلُّبَ وَجۡهِكَ فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِۖ فَلَنُوَلِّيَنَّكَ قِبۡلَةٗ تَرۡضَىٰهَاۚ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِۚ وَحَيۡثُ مَا كُنتُمۡ فَوَلُّواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ شَطۡرَهُۥۗ وَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ لَيَعۡلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ ٱلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّهِمۡۗ وَمَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا يَعۡمَلُونَ

144.Surely, We have observed you turning (295) your face (0 Muhammad) towards heaven repeatedly (296), and We will surely turn you to a Qibla with which you will be pleased (297). So, turn (298) your face towards the Sacred Mosque (Ka'bah) at once, and wherever you (believers) are, turn (299) your face towards it. Those who were given the Scripture, surely, know that it is the truth (300) from their Lord and Allah is not unmindful of their deeds.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 144

وَمِنۡ حَيۡثُ خَرَجۡتَ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِۖ وَإِنَّهُۥ لَلۡحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكَۗ وَمَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ

149. So from whichever direction you come forth (312), turn your face towards the Sacred Mosque and surely, it is the truth from your Lord and Allah is not unmindful of what you do (313).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 149

وَمِنۡ حَيۡثُ خَرَجۡتَ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِۚ وَحَيۡثُ مَا كُنتُمۡ فَوَلُّواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ شَطۡرَهُۥ لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حُجَّةٌ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنۡهُمۡ فَلَا تَخۡشَوۡهُمۡ وَٱخۡشَوۡنِي وَلِأُتِمَّ نِعۡمَتِي عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَلَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ

150.And from wherever you (O Muhammad) come forth, turn your face towards the Sacred Mosque (314). And wherever you (believers) may be, turn your face towards it so that people will not have any argument (315) against you, except for those who are unjust (316). So fear them not but fear Me alone. And it is so that I may complete my favour upon you and that you may be guided(317).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 150

۞إِنَّ ٱلصَّفَا وَٱلۡمَرۡوَةَ مِن شَعَآئِرِ ٱللَّهِۖ فَمَنۡ حَجَّ ٱلۡبَيۡتَ أَوِ ٱعۡتَمَرَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡهِ أَن يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَاۚ وَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيۡرٗا فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَاكِرٌ عَلِيمٌ

158. Surely, Safa and Marwa are of the symbols (331) of Allah. Then whosoever performs Hajj and Umrah of the Sacred House, there is no sin (332) upon him walking between (333) the two of them. And whoever volunteers to do any good, then, surely, Allah is the Most Appreciative, All-Knowing (334).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 158

وَٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡ حَيۡثُ ثَقِفۡتُمُوهُمۡ وَأَخۡرِجُوهُم مِّنۡ حَيۡثُ أَخۡرَجُوكُمۡۚ وَٱلۡفِتۡنَةُ أَشَدُّ مِنَ ٱلۡقَتۡلِۚ وَلَا تُقَٰتِلُوهُمۡ عِندَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ حَتَّىٰ يُقَٰتِلُوكُمۡ فِيهِۖ فَإِن قَٰتَلُوكُمۡ فَٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡۗ كَذَٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ

191. And slay (435) them (the infidels) wherever you find them, and turn (436) them away as they turned you away and mischief is worse than murder. And do not fight them near the Sacred Mosque (437), unless they fight with you there. And if they attack you (first) then kill them. This is the penalty of such infidels.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 191

يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلشَّهۡرِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ قِتَالٖ فِيهِۖ قُلۡ قِتَالٞ فِيهِ كَبِيرٞۚ وَصَدٌّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَكُفۡرُۢ بِهِۦ وَٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ وَإِخۡرَاجُ أَهۡلِهِۦ مِنۡهُ أَكۡبَرُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِۚ وَٱلۡفِتۡنَةُ أَكۡبَرُ مِنَ ٱلۡقَتۡلِۗ وَلَا يَزَالُونَ يُقَٰتِلُونَكُمۡ حَتَّىٰ يَرُدُّوكُمۡ عَن دِينِكُمۡ إِنِ ٱسۡتَطَٰعُواْۚ وَمَن يَرۡتَدِدۡ مِنكُمۡ عَن دِينِهِۦ فَيَمُتۡ وَهُوَ كَافِرٞ فَأُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ حَبِطَتۡ أَعۡمَٰلُهُمۡ فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةِۖ وَأُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ أَصۡحَٰبُ ٱلنَّارِۖ هُمۡ فِيهَا خَٰلِدُونَ

217. They ask you (O Muhammad) about fighting in the sacred month, please declare (0 Muhammad): "Fighting therein is a great sin (507), but to prevent somebody from the Way of Allah and disbelief in Him and (preventing access to) Masjid-al-Haraam and driving out its residents are greater sins (508) in the sight of Allah. (Their) Mischief is more grievous than killing (509), And they will continue to fight with you until they force you to renounce your faith (510) if they can. And whoever of you turns back from his faith (511) and dies while he was a disbeliever, for them their deeds have become worthless in this world (512) and in the Hereafter and they are the inmates of the Fire and they will abide therein forever.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 217

وَمَا لَهُمۡ أَلَّا يُعَذِّبَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَهُمۡ يَصُدُّونَ عَنِ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ وَمَا كَانُوٓاْ أَوۡلِيَآءَهُۥٓۚ إِنۡ أَوۡلِيَآؤُهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡمُتَّقُونَ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ

34. And what excuse do they have that Allah should not punish them, when they are hindering you from the Sacred Mosque (68), and they are not its guardians. Its guardians are the pious ones (69), only, but most of them know it not.

Surah Name : Al-Anfal   Surah Number : 8   Ayat Number: 34

لَّقَدۡ صَدَقَ ٱللَّهُ رَسُولَهُ ٱلرُّءۡيَا بِٱلۡحَقِّۖ لَتَدۡخُلُنَّ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ إِن شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ءَامِنِينَ مُحَلِّقِينَ رُءُوسَكُمۡ وَمُقَصِّرِينَ لَا تَخَافُونَۖ فَعَلِمَ مَا لَمۡ تَعۡلَمُواْ فَجَعَلَ مِن دُونِ ذَٰلِكَ فَتۡحٗا قَرِيبًا

27. Undoubtedly, Allah fulfilled (81) the true vision of His Messenger. You certainly entered (82) the Sacred Mosque as Allah willed, in security, having your heads shaved(83) or hair cut short, without any fear. But He (84) knew what you did not know, so He appointed apart from that a near(85) victory at hand. (Conquest of Makkah without shedding a drop of blood).

Surah Name : Al-Fath   Surah Number : 48   Ayat Number: 27

سُبۡحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أَسۡرَىٰ بِعَبۡدِهِۦ لَيۡلٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ إِلَى ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡأَقۡصَا ٱلَّذِي بَٰرَكۡنَا حَوۡلَهُۥ لِنُرِيَهُۥ مِنۡ ءَايَٰتِنَآۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡبَصِيرُ

1. Holy is He(2) Who carried His Bondsman (3) by night (4) from the Sacred Mosque to the Aqsa Mosque (5) around which We have put blessings (6) that We may show him our grand signs (7). No doubt, He is the All-Hearing and the All-Seeing (8)

۞جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡكَعۡبَةَ ٱلۡبَيۡتَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ قِيَٰمٗا لِّلنَّاسِ وَٱلشَّهۡرَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ وَٱلۡهَدۡيَ وَٱلۡقَلَـٰٓئِدَۚ ذَٰلِكَ لِتَعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعۡلَمُ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍ عَلِيمٌ

97. Allah has made the Ka'bah, the Sacred House as an establishment for the people (267), as is the sacred month and off-springs of the Sacred House and the animals with the marks hanging in the necks (268). That is so that you may know that Allah has the knowledge of what is in the heavens and what is in the earth and that Allah knows everything.

Surah Name : Al-Maidah   Surah Number : 5   Ayat Number: 97

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تُحِلُّواْ شَعَـٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا ٱلشَّهۡرَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ وَلَا ٱلۡهَدۡيَ وَلَا ٱلۡقَلَـٰٓئِدَ وَلَآ ءَآمِّينَ ٱلۡبَيۡتَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ يَبۡتَغُونَ فَضۡلٗا مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ وَرِضۡوَٰنٗاۚ وَإِذَا حَلَلۡتُمۡ فَٱصۡطَادُواْۚ وَلَا يَجۡرِمَنَّكُمۡ شَنَـَٔانُ قَوۡمٍ أَن صَدُّوكُمۡ عَنِ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ أَن تَعۡتَدُواْۘ وَتَعَاوَنُواْ عَلَى ٱلۡبِرِّ وَٱلتَّقۡوَىٰۖ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُواْ عَلَى ٱلۡإِثۡمِ وَٱلۡعُدۡوَٰنِۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ

2. O you who believe! Do not violate the symbols of Allah (4), and neither (the sanctity of) the sacred months (5), and neither the sacrificial animals sent to the Sacred House (Baitul Haram) and not those bearing signs in their necks (6), and neither the property and honor of those who repair to the Sacred House (7), seeking the bounty and pleasure of their Lord. And when you take off the pilgrim's garb then you may hunt (8). And let not the enmity of such people who prevent you to enter the Sacred Mosque incite (9) you to commit any excesses. And help each other in righteousness and piety, and help not one another in sin and transgression (10) and remain fearing Allah, Surely, the punishment of Allah is severe (11).

Surah Name : Al-Maidah   Surah Number : 5   Ayat Number: 2

۞أَجَعَلۡتُمۡ سِقَايَةَ ٱلۡحَآجِّ وَعِمَارَةَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ كَمَنۡ ءَامَنَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِ وَجَٰهَدَ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ لَا يَسۡتَوُۥنَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ,

19. Then do you consider the offering of water to the pilgrims and service of the Sacred Mosque equal (41), to one who believes (42) in Allah and the Last Day and fights in the path of Allah? They are not equal in the sight of Allah. And Allah does not guide the unjust people (43).

Surah Name : At-Tawbah   Surah Number : 9   Ayat Number: 19

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِنَّمَا ٱلۡمُشۡرِكُونَ نَجَسٞ فَلَا يَقۡرَبُواْ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ بَعۡدَ عَامِهِمۡ هَٰذَاۚ وَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ عَيۡلَةٗ فَسَوۡفَ يُغۡنِيكُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦٓ إِن شَآءَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٞ,

28. O believers! Know that the polytheists are altogether unclean (61). Then let them not approach (62) the Sacred Mosque after this year. And if you fear poverty, then soon Allah shall enrich you with His bounty, if He pleases (63). Verily, Allah is All Knowing, Wise (64),

Surah Name : At-Tawbah   Surah Number : 9   Ayat Number: 28

رَّبَّنَآ إِنِّيٓ أَسۡكَنتُ مِن ذُرِّيَّتِي بِوَادٍ غَيۡرِ ذِي زَرۡعٍ عِندَ بَيۡتِكَ ٱلۡمُحَرَّمِ رَبَّنَا لِيُقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ فَٱجۡعَلۡ أَفۡـِٔدَةٗ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ تَهۡوِيٓ إِلَيۡهِمۡ وَٱرۡزُقۡهُم مِّنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَشۡكُرُونَ

37. 'O my Lord, I have caused some of my children to settle in a valley (82) wherein there is no cultivation by your sacred house (83). O my Lord in order that they might keep up prayer (84), then you make some people's hearts incline (85) towards them and give them some fruits for food (86), so that they may be thankful.

Surah Name : Ibrahim   Surah Number : 14   Ayat Number: 37

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ وَيَصُدُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلۡنَٰهُ لِلنَّاسِ سَوَآءً ٱلۡعَٰكِفُ فِيهِ وَٱلۡبَادِۚ وَمَن يُرِدۡ فِيهِ بِإِلۡحَادِۭ بِظُلۡمٖ نُّذِقۡهُ مِنۡ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٖ

25. Undoubtedly, those who disbelieve and hinder the way of Allah (51) and from the sacred Mosque (52) which We have appointed equal for all, both for dwellers there in and visitors (53). And whoso seeks any excessiveness in it unjustly (54) we shall cause them to taste a painful torment.(55)
