Facing in the direction of the Qiblih is a fixed requirement for the recitation of obligatory prayer, but for other prayers and devotions one may follow what the merciful Lord hath revealed in the Qur’án: “Whichever way ye turn, there is the face of God.” 
- Baha’u’llah  (‘Questions and Answers’; ‘The Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
