حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، وَحُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَصْحَابَهُ " كَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَحَيْثُ مَا كُنْتُمْ فَوَلُّوا وُجُوهَكُمْ شَطْرَهُ سورة البقرة آية 144 فَمَرَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي سَلَمَةَ فَنَادَاهُمْ وَهُمْ رُكُوعٌ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ : أَلَا إِنَّ الْقِبْلَةَ قَدْ حُوِّلَتْ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ مَرَّتَيْنِ ، فَمَالُوا كَمَا هُمْ رُكُوعٌ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ " .
Anas said: The Prophet ﷺ and his Companions used to pray in the direction of Jerusalem. When the following verse was revealed: “ So turn thy face towards the inviolable mosque”; and Ye (O Muslims), wheresoever ye may be, turn your face towards it” (ii. 144), a man passed by the people of Banu Salamah. He called them while they were bowing in the morning prayer facing Jerusalem: Lo, the qiblah (direction of prayer) has been changed towards the Kaabah. He called them twice. So they turned their faces towards the Kaabah while they were bowing.

Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
1045. Commentary:
➊ Abrogation of rulings is established in Islam, and until knowledge of it is attained, no one is held accountable for it.
➋ The report of a single trustworthy individual is also acceptable, which is technically termed as "khabar wahid" (solitary report).
➌ If, out of ignorance, prayer is performed facing the qiblah, then it is valid.
➍ Out of necessity, a person who is not praying may instruct someone who is praying, even during the prayer.
➎ Such instruction does not invalidate the prayer of the one praying. «والله اعلم»

Benefits and Issues:
The meaning of the hadith of Hazrat Buraidah (radi Allahu anhu) is that correct ruqyah (recitation for healing) for the evil eye and the sting of a poisonous creature brings benefit very quickly, just as Hazrat Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (radi Allahu anhu) recited Surah al-Fatihah as ruqyah, and the person immediately became healthy, as if he had not suffered any pain at all.
There is no contradiction between the two hadiths; we have already explained the correct meaning of the second hadith.
