Is it permissible to sleep with one's feet facing the Qibla?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no objection for a Muslim to sleep with his feet towards the Kaaba. A sick person who is unable to stand or sit prays on his side, facing the Qibla. If he is unable to do so, he prays lying down with his feet towards the Qibla.
