Question
After many years it was discovered the Qiblah direction of a Musjid was completely erroneous. The direction has now been rectified. What is the status of all the Salaat performed facing the wrong direction? Should all the past Salaat be repeated?
Answer
The Salaat performed in the past is valid regardless of the wrong direction. There is no need to repeat the Salaat.
