Sura Al-Baqara 2:177

Righteousness is not that you turn your faces toward the east or the west, but [true] righteousness is [in] one who believes in Allah ...

Yaani:

Haki (mbele za Mungu) haitokani na mtu kugeukia mashariki au magharibi. Mtu mwenye haki ni yule anayemwamini Allah ...

LAKINI QURAN HIYO HIYO INASEMA:

Sura Al-Baqara 2:144

Indeed, we see you look repetedly towards heaven. We will make you turn towards a qiblah that will please you. So turn your face towards the sacred Mosque (qiblah). Wherever you are, turn your faces to it.

Yaani:

Tumekuona unavyoelekeza macho yako mbinguni tena na tena. Tutawafanya muigeukie qiblah itakayowafurahisha. Hivyo, geuzeni nyuso zenu kuelekea msikiti mtakatifu [japo quran zingine zinasema ‘towards al-Masjid al-Haram’ – najiuliza 'Haram' maana yake nini!!]

Maswali:

1.    Kama aliyesema aya hizi mbili ni yuleyule; na ni Mungu wa mbinguni, inakuwaje zinapingana?

2.  Kama zimetoka kwa Mungu wa mbinguni, si jambo la ajabu kuona kwamba hapendi watu waelekeze macho yake kule aliko badala yake waelekeze kwingineko? 
3. Kama wewe tunayekuabudu uko juu, kwa nini hautaki tuelekeza macho yetu huko? Huu si mkanganyiko?
4. Na kama wewe ni Mungu uliye mahali KOTE, kwa nini nielekeze macho yangu sehemu moja?
