There was a question during our conversation with friends about how to find the directions to Bahji. Bahji or popularly known as the Mansion of Bahji is in Accre(formerly Akkah),Israel. I claimed Bahji was south east of Chicago. In all reality using in the Projection maps it is. Whereas if you use a thread and hold it on the city where you live and extend it to the Accre(Akkah), Israel and stretch the shortest distance. Or if you're computer savvy you can use Bahji Locator to locate the direction.
That is the direction you have to face while praying for the Medium and Long Obligatory prayer. Did you know about this?
