743. Al-Barâ' bin 'Âzib said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came to Al-Madînah and prayed toward Bait Al-Maqdis for sixteen months, then he was commanded to face toward the Ka'bah. A man who had prayed with the Prophet ﷺ passed by some of the Anshâr and said: 'I bear witness that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ has been commanded to face toward the Ka'bah.' So they turned to face the Ka'bah." (Sahîh)

Arabic text

742 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَزْرَقُ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ: «قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَصَلَّى نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا، ثُمَّ وُجِّهَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ». فَمَرَّ رَجُلٌ قَدْ كَانَ صَلَّى مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ وُجِّهَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ، فَانْحَرَفُوا إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ
