Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What is the amount of deviation excused in facing the qiblah?
Answer:
If the qiblah is behind his back or to his side, the prayer is not valid. However, if the qiblah is in front of him, even if he is slightly deviated from it, as long as he has not turned his back to it and it is not to his side, his prayer is valid. The qiblah is everything between the east and the west.
