Is it the case that if one errs regarding the qiblah in prayer, we say he should cut off the prayer and then correct it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah reward you, ... if the error in his prayer becomes clear to him, he should correct it in such a way that he does not cut off the prayer. We see that when someone errs and prays in your direction in the mosque ... he cuts off the prayer and prays toward the qiblah?
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly, did you understand the question?
The questioner : Yes, I do.
The Shaykh : There is no difficulty in this, because this person is being negligent; he can see the mihrab in front of him.
The questioner : He exerted effort, O Shaykh ...
The Shaykh : There is no exertion of effort here, there is no exertion of effort. He enters and sees the mihrab in front of him; even the mihrab, by the grace of Allah, is directly in front of the door, and he comes to face us?
Our discussion applies if the person is one who exerted effort, and his exertion of effort led him to this direction. There is no exertion of effort in the middle of mosques; there is no exertion of effort in mosques, yes.
