142.The foolish (285) among the people will say (286): "What has turned them (Muslims) away from their Qibla(287) which they used to face?" Please declare (O Muhammad): "To Allah belongs (288) the east and the west, He guides whom He wills to the Straight Path".

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 142

وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلۡنَٰكُمۡ أُمَّةٗ وَسَطٗا لِّتَكُونُواْ شُهَدَآءَ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَيَكُونَ ٱلرَّسُولُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ شَهِيدٗاۗ وَمَا جَعَلۡنَا ٱلۡقِبۡلَةَ ٱلَّتِي كُنتَ عَلَيۡهَآ إِلَّا لِنَعۡلَمَ مَن يَتَّبِعُ ٱلرَّسُولَ مِمَّن يَنقَلِبُ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيۡهِۚ وَإِن كَانَتۡ لَكَبِيرَةً إِلَّا عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ هَدَى ٱللَّهُۗ وَمَا كَانَ ٱللَّهُ لِيُضِيعَ إِيمَٰنَكُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِٱلنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٞ رَّحِيمٌۭ

143.And thus We made you an exalted (289) community among all the nations that you may be a witness (290) over the people and the Rasool (Messenger) will be a witness over you (291). And (O Beloved) We did not make the Qibla, which you used to face (Baitul Muqaddas) but that We might make evident who would follow the Rasool from who would turn back on his heels. And, surely, it is difficult, except for those whom Allah has guided (292), and never would Allah cause you to lose your faith (293). Surely, Allah is to the people, Most Kind and Merciful (294).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 143

وَلَئِنۡ أَتَيۡتَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ بِكُلِّ ءَايَةٖ مَّا تَبِعُواْ قِبۡلَتَكَۚ وَمَآ أَنتَ بِتَابِعٖ قِبۡلَتَهُمۡۚ وَمَا بَعۡضُهُم بِتَابِعٖ قِبۡلَةَ بَعۡضٖۚ وَلَئِنِ ٱتَّبَعۡتَ أَهۡوَآءَهُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ ٱلۡعِلۡمِ إِنَّكَ إِذٗا لَّمِنَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

145.And if you were to bring to the people of the Scripture (301) every sign, they would not follow (302)your Qibla, nor should you follow their Qibla(303), nor would they be followers of each other's Qibla (304). (O listeners) If you were to follow their desires, after the knowledge of the truth has come to you, then indeed you would then be among the transgressors (305).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 145

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).
