Performing salaah in the wrong direction

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: A person made taharri for qibla and read salah, later when the salah time expired, he came to know it was the wrong qibla, does he repeat his salaah?

Bismillaah

A: Taharri is valid if there was no person to find out from. And if the namaaz was done with taharri according to this procedure then it does not have to be repeated.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
