While urinating or defecating, never face the Qiblah except when you are screened by a building or a wall or something like that

باب لاَ تُسْتَقْبَلُ الْقِبْلَةُ بِغَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ إِلاَّ عِنْدَ الْبِنَاءِ جِدَارٍ أَوْ نَحْوِهِ

Sahih al-Bukhari 144

Narrated Abu Aiyub Al-Ansari:

Allah's Apostle ﷺ said, "If anyone of you goes to an open space for answering the call of nature he should neither face nor turn his back towards the Qibla;
he should either face the east or the west."

حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ " إِذَا أَتَى أَحَدُكُمُ الْغَائِطَ فَلاَ يَسْتَقْبِلِ الْقِبْلَةَ وَلاَ يُوَلِّهَا ظَهْرَهُ، شَرِّقُوا أَوْ غَرِّبُوا ".
