Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The other person, may Allah grant you success, says: When a person is dying, what is directed toward the qiblah? Is only the face of the deceased directed, or the entire body?

Answer:
Directing his face is sufficient. He is placed on his right side and directed toward the qiblah. Yes.
