Performing salaah in the wrong direction
Question
A person made taharri for qibla and read salah, later when the salah time expired, he came to know it was the wrong qibla, does he repeat his salaah?
Answer
Taharri is valid if there was no person to find out from. And if the namaaz was done with taharri according to this procedure then it does not have to be repeated.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
