Regarding the sick person, if it is possible to turn the bed toward the qiblah, is that obligatory?

Question : Does the sick person pray in the direction of the bed, or is he required to have the bed installed [toward the qiblah]?

Answer : If it is possible to turn the bed toward the qiblah, it is obligatory. However, sometimes it is not possible because some beds are fixed. It might be that the room is narrow and he is in its length, and it is not possible for him to be in its width. The point is, if it is possible, it is obligatory.
