أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ زَيدَ ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ :" إِذَا أَتَيْتُمْ الْغَائِطَ، فَلَا تَسْتَقْبِلُوا الْقِبْلَةَ بِغَائِطٍ، وَلَا بَوْلٍ، وَلَا تَسْتَدْبِرُوهَا "، قَالَ : ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ : فَقَدِمْنَا الشَّامَ ، فَوَجَدْنَا مَرَاحِيضَ قَدْ بُنِيَتْ عِنْدَ الْقِبْلَةِ فَنَنْحَرِفُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ، قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد : وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ، وَعَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ شِبْهُ الْمَتْرُوكِ

Abu Nu'aym told us, Ibn Uyaynah told us, on the authority of Al-Zuhri, on the authority of Ata' bin Zayd, on the authority of Abu Ayyub, on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. He said: “When you go to the toilet, do not face the Qiblah while defecating or urinating, and do not turn away from it.” He said: Then Abu Ayyub said: So we came to the Levant and found latrines built at the Qiblah, so we turned aside and asked God for forgiveness. Abu Muhammad said: This is more correct than the hadith. Abd al-Karim, and Abd al-Karim is almost abandoned.
