The ruling on praying in the Hijr while having the Ka'bah behind one
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is the prayer valid in the Hijr while having the Ka'bah behind one, since it is part of the Ka'bah?
Answer:
The voluntary prayer is valid, but the obligatory prayer is not; the obligatory prayer is not valid inside the Ka'bah, and the Hijr is part of it. As for the voluntary prayer, it is not permissible to have the Ka'bah behind one, because this disturbs the people and is not practical. Yes.
