Rustam Khairullin, Imam of the Gail Mosque in Kazan, turned to the builders with a request to take into account the direction of the Kaaba when designing apartment buildings.

Answering in social networks the question of his subscribers, “how to put the bed correctly,” Khairullin said that “Muslims do not need alien cultures, like feng shui, our methodology is the sunnah of our beloved Prophet.” “Everything is described in the Sunnah and the Koran,” he said.

“The best and ideal thing is for a person to lie with his face or head towards the Kaaba, towards Mecca. If we take Tatarstan and Bashkortostan, then this is the south. It is necessary that the head or face be turned to the south. It is considered undesirable for the feet to look towards the Kaaba, towards Mecca,” the imam replied.

“Of course, it does not depend on us, sometimes the developer builds in different ways. Therefore, I would like to appeal to developers: when building, planning houses, especially high-rise [apartment] houses, dear architects, a big request to you, design houses in such a way that the bedrooms are designed in such a way that the bed can be placed so that the face or head towards Mecca,” he said.

The imam also touched upon the topic of latrines, which are also related to the design of the house.

“When we meet a small or big need, it is impossible, it is sinful to turn front or back towards Mecca. Dear developers, when you are standing at home, installing toilets or other places for latrines, pay attention to this, ”he turned to the architects with one more request.

If the house is already planned so that you have to lie with your feet towards Mecca, then the imam recommends turning the bed away from Mecca at least 5 degrees.
