Surat Al Baqarah (115-116)

{ وَلِلّهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَالْمَغْرِبُ فَأَيْنَمَا تُوَلُّواْ فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ اللّهِ إِنَّ اللّهَ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ } [البقرة:  115]

115- The whole earth belongs to Allah; its east and west, and none has dominance or disposal over it but He (He may be Glorified). If you are prevented from practicing the acts of worship in Al Aqsa Mosque or in Al Masjid Al Haram, you can perform Salah anywhere and direct your face towards the Qiblah, there you will find the direction which Allah commanded. His Knowledge encompasses all things and by His Mercy He removes the burden from His Servants, for He is the All-Knowing with their best interests and their actions everywhere.

It was reported in a Hadith which is good according to similar Hadiths that a group of the Companions was in a detachment. At night, they differed about the direction of the Qiblah. In the morning, it was clear that they directed their faces to direction other than that of the Qiblah, thereupon this Ayah was revealed.

Ibn Al Jawzy said in "Nawasikh Al Qur'an": The ruling is still active and anyone was confused regarding the Qiblah and offered Salah according to his Ijtihad, his Salah will be correct and valid.

}وَقَالُواْ اتَّخَذَ اللّهُ وَلَداً سُبْحَانَهُ بَل لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ كُلٌّ لَّهُ قَانِتُونَ } [البقرة:  116]

116- The Christians, the Jews and some of the Arab idolaters said: Allah has taken a son! Glorified and Exalted be He. Verily, they have lied and committed a great sin by that saying for He has the dominion of heavens and the earth, He is the Only Disposer of its animate and inanimate creatures. He is their Creator and their Sustainer and the One who administers them as He wills. So, everybody is His Servant and belongs to Him. Then, how could He have a child of them, whereas a child should be begotten from two harmonious couples and Allah does not have a parallel, a peer, or a wife. So, how could He have a child? He is the Lord to Whose Will everything subjects.
