Repeating prayers performed facing a direction other than the qiblah while in a settled location

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a woman, O Shaykh, who prayed facing a direction other than the qiblah several times while in a settled location. Then she realized that she was praying facing a direction other than the qiblah. Does she have to repeat these prayers?

Answer:
Yes, as long as she is in the town and is able to ask about the qiblah or look at the mihrabs of the mosques, she must repeat the prayers she performed facing a direction other than the qiblah, because she has no excuse. Yes.
