Why is it to face the feet towards the Qibla people say it is ghunnah?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org

Why is it to face the feet towards the Qibla people say it is ghunnah? Jazakallah.

Answer

The Qibla is from amongst the salient features of Islam, which a person should show respect to. Facing one’s feet towards Qibla intentionally should be avoided. Spitting in the direction of the Qibla has been prohibited in the Ahadith. Allah Taala says and whosoever respects the salient features of Allah, that is from the piety of the heart. (S 22
V.32)
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
