Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner asks: Is the car today like a riding animal?
Answer:
We told you that the car is a room, like a room; it is not like a riding animal. It is a room, so pray in it as one prays in a room. Yes. It may be said that the driver has the ruling of the rider on a riding animal, because he directs the car, so he prays the voluntary prayer according to the direction of the car, while the others face the qiblah, bow, and prostrate, because they are in a room.
