Answer 2

You face to Meccah. Meccah is located at south east when you look with a compass.
Do you know how to pray?
Do you have an e-mail address?

Answer 4

Turn towards Mecca and pray , five times a day,fast during Ramadan,Visit Mecca,

Answer 5

Congratulations!!! Welcome to the religion of peace. You should bow your face towards Mecca. Its a source of unity among the Muslims. If you are in the West, you bow towards East, if you are in the East, you bow towards West. Kaaba is in the centre of the world.

Answer 6

You should turn to Christ instead.

Mohammed was a false prophet that taught adultery (bigamy), violent intolerance (The Qu'Ran preaches of rising up militarily against Jews and Christians), etcetera.

Mohammed came here to conquer land and kill people.

Christ came here to sacrifice himself before and after teaching peace.

You make the choice.

Answer 7

You bow towards Mecca.

Answer 8

Dont Forget to Fart while you back that thang up toward saudi arabia

Answer 9

This is what you do, you point your butt to your mom's house, and your face to your dead grand ma's grave.

Answer 10

I am getting really annoyed at all the Islam/Muslim/Arab bashing that goes on at yahoo answers.

"Can't we all just get along?"
