The questioner : Shaykh Muhammad, this sister who is asking says that she prayed in a direction other than the qiblah. Does the prayer need to be repeated in such a case?
The Shaykh : Yes, if she was negligent, it is obligatory for her to repeat it. The most likely case is that she was negligent if she was in the city, because she could have asked and searched for the qiblah.
The presenter : Zayn asked.
The Shaykh : So it is obligatory for her to repeat all the prayers she prayed.
The presenter : Okay, may Allah reward you with good.
