In the following narration of Sahih Muslim, Kitabul Hajj:
فلما انصرفوا قبل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم
Is the word ‘qabla‘ or ‘qibala‘ and what will the translation be?
Answer:
The correct pronunciation is qibala (قِبَلَ) which means ‘in the direction of/towards Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam).’
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
