  200 mosques in Makkah have wrong Qibla direction  By Salman Al-Salmi MAKKAH - The building of multistory residential towers adjacent to the Grand Mosque has led to the discovery that the direction of the Qibla in some 200 old mosques in the proximity of the Holy Mosque is wrongly positioned. Qibla is the Arabic word for the direction a Muslim should face when offering prayers. Most mosques contain a niche in a wall that indicates the Qibla which faces in the direction of the Holy Ka'aba.  These high residential towers around the Grand Mosque have enabled some worshippers to discover slight discrepancies in the direction of the Qibla of an estimated 200 mosques, especially the ones in Al-Mansour and Al-Tandbawi districts and Al-Sitteen.  The direction of the Qibla in some of these mosques is set to the western wing of the Holy Mosque while others are inclined toward Al-Misfala District.. It is believed some of these mosques were built 50 years ag
