Zujajat al-Masabih 1761Volume 1

English

Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "When he returned from Syria, we met him at ‘Ayn al-Thamar. I saw him praying on a donkey, facing a direction other than the Qibla (to the left of it). I said: ‘I saw you praying not facing the Qibla.’ He replied: ‘Had I not seen the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) do so, I would not have done it.’"
