The east is from whence comes life giving light. All religions venerate the light of the sun, the sun of god, the light giver. Light also symbolizes knowledge and enlightenment, spiritual enlightenment. Christian alters must also be facing the east. 2 Likes |

bigabbey: Search this word on google,"QIBLAH"..it will provide u with enough answers...and also note that muslims are supposed to pray facing the Ka'abah located in Mecca,Saudi Arabia..so the direction of the Ka'abah would depend on where one is praying from. 3 Likes |
