✧ The comprehensive chapters on the call to prayer and the commencement of prayer
وَخَبَرُ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فِي خُرُوجِ الْأَنْصَارِ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فِي بَيْعَةِ الْعَقَبَةِ، وَذُكِرَ فِي الْخَبَرِ أَنَّ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ مَعْرُورٍ قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ: إِنِّي خَرَجْتُ فِي سَفَرِي هَذَا وَقَدْ هَدَانِي اللهُ لِلْإِسْلَامِ، فَرَأَيْتُ أَلَّا أَجْعَلَ هَذِهِ الْبَنِيَّةَ مِنِّي بِظَهْرٍ، فَصَلَّيْتُ إِلَيْهَا، وَقَدْ خَالَفَنِي أَصْحَابِي فِي ذَلِكَ حَتَّى وَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ، فَمَاذَا تَرَى ؟ قَالَ: قَدْ كُنْتَ عَلَى قِبْلَةٍ لَوْ صَبَرْتَ عَلَيْهَا. قَالَ: فَرَجَعَ الْبَرَاءُ إِلَى قِبْلَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَصَلَّى مَعَنَا إِلَى الشَّامِ
Translation
✧ And the report of Ka'b b. Malik about the departure of the Ansar from Madinah to Makkah for the pledge at al-ʿAqabah. And it was mentioned in the report that al-Bara' b. Ma'rur said to the Prophet ﷺ: I set out on this journey of mine, and Allah had guided me to Islam. I saw that I should not place this house (the Ka'bah) behind my back, so I prayed toward it. My companions opposed me in that until something of that entered my heart. What do you think? He said: You were upon a qiblah if you had remained patient on it. He said: So al-Bara' returned to the qiblah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and prayed with us toward Syria.
