Is it permissible to pray on a mount or in a car, both in the city and while traveling?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Is praying in a car specifically restricted to this time, meaning while traveling, or is it permissible in the city?

Answer : No, it is not permissible in the city, neither in a car, nor on a donkey, nor on a horse. It is only permissible while traveling, because a traveler needs to move, and it may prevent him from praying if we say he cannot pray on a mount. As for in the city, praise be to Allah, he goes to his house and prays.
