حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ السَّمَّانُ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ. عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي لَيْلَةٍ سَوْدَاءَ مُظْلِمَةٍ، فَنَزَلْنَا مَنْزِلًا، فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَأْخُذُ الْحِجَارَةَ، فَيَجْمَعُهَا مَسْجِدًا فَيُصَلِّي إِلَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْنَا، إِذَا نَحْنُ عَلَى غَيْرِ الْقِبْلَةِ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، صَلَّيْنَا لَيْلَتَنَا هَذِهِ لِغَيْرِ الْقِبْلَةِ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: وَلِلَّهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَالْمَغْرِبُ فَأَيْنَمَا تُوَلُّوا فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ اللهِ

✧ I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a dark, black night, and we stopped at a place. Each man took stones and arranged them as a mosque and prayed toward them. When morning came, we found we had not faced the qiblah. We said, "O Messenger of Allah, we prayed this night not facing the qiblah." Then Allah revealed: "To Allah belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn, there is the face of Allah."
