This is not permissible. Praying to the qibla is a condition of prayer. You must try your level best either by looking at the position of the sun to find out the directions or to check a compass or your mobile or ask the locals or check the masjid.

Is Tahiyyat Al Masjid a Sunnah Muaqaddah or a nafil sunnah? I’m confused because I’m aware there was an incident when a man came to Jumu’ah and sat down during the khutbah, the Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon him) asked him to get up and pray two Sunnah, could you please explain

Suppose i recite sura alaq after fatiha in salah & finished recitation with it. Should i perform sujud at-tilawa immediately then stand up again then go to ruku then go to sujud? Or is it sufficient to go to ruku then go to sujud?

The sunnah is to offer the sujood but it is not mandatory.

While praying zuhr, asr or the raqahs in which the imam doesn’t recite loudely, do the people praying behind him have to recite for their own self or just wait silently for the Imam without reciting anything else and just go into rukuh whenever he says allah hu Akbar ?

Prayer

You have to recite fatiha, and it is sunnah to recite some other surahs also. If you don’t recite the Fatiha in silent Rakah, your prayer is void and invalid.
