Y: So from whencesoever Thou startest forth, turn Thy face in the
direction of the sacred Mosque; and wheresoever ye are, Turn your face
thither: that there be no ground of dispute against you among the
people, except those of them that are bent on wickedness; so fear them
not, but fear Me; and that I may complete My favours on you, and ye May

P: Whencesoever thou comest forth turn thy face toward the Inviolable

S: And from whatsoever place you come forth, turn your face towards the
Sacred Mosque; and wherever you are turn your faces towards it, so that
people shall have no accusation against you, except such of them as are
unjust; so do not fear them, and fear Me, that I may complete My favor
on you and that you may walk on the right course.
