The ruling on praying in a mosque that is not facing the qiblah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
This is a caller to the program who says: Your Eminence, we have a mosque that is not facing the qiblah. Is it permissible for us to pray in it or not?
Answer: It must be corrected if the deviation is strong... large. It must be corrected. But if the deviation is slight, it is excused. However, if its deviation is large, it must be corrected, even by adjusting the rows, so that it is rebuilt once again.
And as for when the deviation is slight, it is excused. Yes.
