Salaah Towards East or West

Covered by 1 scholar · Sacred & Islamic

Imam Ibn Sirin

Dreams and Interpretations (Ibn Sireen, Hathurani tr.) · p. 16

If a person sees himself performing Salaah, facing east (when qiblah is not in that direction) it means that he will advocate the beliefs of the Qadriyyah sect (a sect who believes in the freedom of will). If he performs Salaah facing west (when Qiblah is not in that direction) it means he will advocate the beliefs of the Jabriyyah (ie. the sect of the fatalists, believing that man has no power of will: he is involuntarily forced by Allah to do good or bad).
