Al-Baqarah 2:189 ۞ يسالونك عن الاهلة قل هي مواقيت للناس والحج وليس البر بان تاتوا البيوت من ظهورها ولاكن البر من اتقى واتوا البيوت من ابوابها واتقوا الله لعلكم تفلحون ١٨٩
۞ يَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ
عَنِ
ٱلۡأَهِلَّةِۖ
قُلۡ
هِيَ
مَوَٰقِيتُ
لِلنَّاسِ
وَٱلۡحَجِّۗ
وَلَيۡسَ
ٱلۡبِرُّ
بِأَن
تَأۡتُواْ
ٱلۡبُيُوتَ
مِن
ظُهُورِهَا
وَلَٰكِنَّ
ٱلۡبِرَّ
مَنِ
ٱتَّقَىٰۗ
وَأۡتُواْ
ٱلۡبُيُوتَ
مِنۡ
أَبۡوَٰبِهَاۚ
وَٱتَّقُواْ
ٱللَّهَ
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
تُفۡلِحُونَ

It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness) that you enter the houses from the back but Al-Birr (is the quality of the one) who fears Allâh. So enter houses through their proper doors, and fear Allâh that you may be successful.
