Is it prescribed to turn the dying person toward the qiblah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there any basis for turning the dying person toward the qiblah?

Answer:
I know of nothing in this matter except the hadith:
The Ka'bah is your qiblah, whether you are alive or dead.الكعبة قبلتكم أحياءً وأمواتًا
, and there is some discussion regarding its chain of narration.
