Prayer in a mosque that is misaligned with the qiblah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from France says: We have a mosque in France that is misaligned with the qiblah by forty-two degrees. Is it permissible to pray in it, given that there is no other mosque in this village?

Answer:
Pray in it, as long as the misalignment does not take you outside the qiblah, then pray in it. Yes.
