Question
When someone makes dua by the Holy Qabar of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), the guards physically turn the person to face the Qiblah. Is it not permissible to make dua facing the Raudhah Mubaarak?
Answer
It is permissible to face the Raudha Mubaarak when making dua. In fact, it is disrespectful to have one's back towards the Raudhah Mubaarak. Therefore one should avoid performing Salaat in a position where one's back will be towards the Raudhah Mubaarak.
