The story of the shift of the qiblah to the Sacred House of God

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him) changed the direction of the qiblah to the Holy Kaaba during prayer, followed by Muslims. The Bani Salama Mosque witnessed this great event by converting the Islamic qiblah of the Al-Aqsa Mosque into the Holy Kaaba, so that the mosque was called the Mosque of the Two Qiblas. The wisdom of changing the qiblah is a test for the hearts of all people. Muslims, hypocrites, associates and Jews As far as Muslims are concerned, none of them hesitated to follow the commands of God, and to lead the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and the hypocrites said that Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, to him (he) did not know where to go and what It is the reality of his religion. His prayers, but the Jews did not like that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon you) accepted him and then turned from him. They claimed that if he was a prophet, he would turn into a qiblah from the Holy House, and the participants said that Muhammad has returned to our qiblah and will also return to our religion so that his positions are different and the exact details appear. your heart. The Prophet Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said to his Prophet Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, before he turned the qiblah away from the position of the Jews, and what they would say if the qiblah had changed, which is a ridiculous matter that the Prophet would not have known if it were not that God would have said that. distinguishing between Muslims and giving them the status of the middle nation; Since the Nation of Islam is a mediating state in thought and faith, and at a distance from any physical and spiritual floods, it is mediated here as well, as it mediates in countries between East and West, North and South To establish and realize the significance of the prohibition of Islam, Muslims follow each other and look like other religions. The conversion of the qibla to the honorable Kaaba was discrimination against Muslims and its uniqueness in worship, which was associated with the honorable Kaaba. In the education of Muslims, they preached and glorified the honorable Kaaba in fanaticism of their nationalism and their Arabism before Islam, so God accepted them first in the Holy House and then linked them to the Noble Kaaba with the bond of religion and faith instead of the bond of nationalism.
