During praying, Muslims face the direction of Kaaba (if close to it or if residing in Mecca city) or the direction of Mecca (Makkah) city that is currently located in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia (if located outside Mecca) or the direction of Saudi Arabia (if located much far away from Saudi Arabia).My textbook is in front of me, and one of the Fiver Pillars of Muslim is Prayer. In the pillar of Prayer it says "five times a day, Muslims face toward Mecca to pray."Should take the direction of Makkah (or Mecca) in the Kingdom of Saudi ArabiaFacing the diorection of Kaba, Makkah (Mecca), Saudi Arabia
