Al-Baqarah
وَمِنۡ حَيۡثُ خَرَجۡتَ فَوَلِّ وَجۡهَكَ شَطۡرَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِۚ وَحَيۡثُ مَا كُنتُمۡ فَوَلُّواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ شَطۡرَهُۥ لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ حُجَّةٌ إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنۡهُمۡ فَلَا تَخۡشَوۡهُمۡ وَٱخۡشَوۡنِي وَلِأُتِمَّ نِعۡمَتِي عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَلَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ
150[O Muhammad ( )!] And from wheresoever you start a journey, you should turn your face towards Masjid-al-Haram. And wherever you are, turn your face to this direction (when you pray). (This message is repeated) so that the people (i.e. your opponents) are left with no argument against you, except those who are wrong-doers among them. Hence, don’t fear them, rather fear Me Alone so that I may complete My Blessings on you (By providing you abode in Paradise in the Hereafter) and so that you be guided (to Islam in this world).
