Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever neither faces the qiblah nor turns his back to it while defecating, one good deed is recorded for him and one of his sins is erased."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except that the case of al-Tabarani's teacher and his teacher's teacher is different; nevertheless, both of them are thiqah (trustworthy).
