The '''Qibla Verse''' (Arabic: آیة القبلة) is the verse number 144 of [[Sura al-Baqara]] in the [[Qru'an]] which commands Muslims to change their [[Qibla]] from [[Jerusalem]] to [[Masjid al-Haram]]. After the [[Hijra|migration]] of Muslims to [[Medina]], Jewish residents of the city took the direction of Muslims towards Jerusalem to be evidence that Islam was not an authentic religion. This led [[the Prophet Muhammad (s)]] to wish that the [[Ka'ba]] were the Qibla for Muslims.
