Shaykh Saalih as-Suhaymee said:

"Leave it! What do you have to do with it?! Avoid these fitnahs and other [unbeneficial] things that busy you. Busy yourselves with attaining knowledge, and leave those things which take you off of the path."

Shaykh Saalih as-Suhaymee said:

"After looking at the website "Madeenah.com", which is supervised by the esteemed Shaykh Khalid ibn Qasim ar-Raddadee (may Allah preserve him) and administrated by a group of Islamic University of Madeenah graduates from the West, I have found it to be a valuable, beneficial, salafi website which focuses on the translation and dissemination of statements and fatwas by the Imams of Ahlus Sunnah and Salafi Mashaayikh. It aims to clarify the correct methodology while avoiding extremism, useless gossip, and distortion of the scholars' statements to make them mean what they did not intend."

The Ruling of Pointing One’s Feet Towards the Qiblah

Shaykh Abdullaah ibn Muhammad ibn Humayd

Reference: Fataawa Ash-Shaykh Ibn Humaid p144

Category: General

Question: Some people say that to place the feet in the direction of the Qiblah whilst sitting in the masjid is something that is not permissible, and it is from bad manners. Does this have any basis? Is it merely a cultural matter or is it an innovated ruling?

Response: There is nothing preventing this; some of the scholars did however mention that it is disliked for one to point his legs towards the Ka’bah if he is close to it. So this is something of a lesser disliking (i.e. it does not reach the level of Haraam).

As for the Masjid that exists in a different place, and therein a Muslim points his legs towards the Qiblah, then there is no problem with this and neither is it forbidden inshaAllah. This is what the scholars have stated.

Allaah knows best.[1]

Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen was also asked regarding pointing ones legs towards the Qiblah during sleep.

He replied: There is no sin upon the one who sleeps and his legs are in the direction of the Qiblah.[2]

حكم وضع الرجلين باتجاه القبلة

الشيج عبد الله بن محمد بن حميد

ÇáãÑÌÚ: فتاوى الشيخ ابن حميد ص 144

ÇáÈÇÈ: عام

يقول بعض الناس أن وضع القدمين باتجاه القبلة عند الجلوس في المسجد أمر غير مسموح وهو من الآداب السيئة . هل لهذا أي أساس ، أو هل هو أمر ثقافي تقليدي ، أم أنه إضافة مُحدثة؟

سئل الشيخ عبد الله بن حميد رحمه الله عن وضع الرجلين تجاه القبلة فأجاب:

لا مانع منه ، إلا أن بعض العلماء يكره أن يمد رجليه نحو الكعبة ، إذا كان قريباً منها ، فكره ذلك كراهة تنزيهية . أما مثل وجود مسجد في مكان آخر وفيه مسلم يوجه رجليه نحو القبلة ، فهذا لا بأس به ، ولا محظور فيه إن شاء الله ، كما قرره أهل العلم . والله أعلم.

وسئل الشيخ ابن عثيمين عن وضع الرجلين باتجاه القبلة عند النوم فقال:

ليس على الإنسان حرج إذا نام ورجلاه في اتجاه القبلة . < فتاوى الشيخ ابن عثيمين 2/ 976

ÇáãÊÑÌã: أبو العباس نفيد أياز
