If one prays facing other than the Qibla—whether intentionally or forgetfully—while being able to face it, their prayer is invalid, and they must repeat it, due to the Almighty's saying: (So turn your face toward Al-Masjid Al-) and the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) saying: (Then face the Qibla and say Allahu Akbar).
