The ruling on a traveler praying while seated in a bus
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man feared that the time for the 'Asr prayer would end while he was riding in a bus as a traveler, and he was unable to get off, perform wudu', and pray. So he prayed in his current state, seated in his seat, two rak'ahs a few minutes before the Maghrib adhan. Does his prayer suffice, or must he repeat the prayer after he arrives?
Answer:
Allah the Exalted said:[At-Taghabun 64:16] This man prayed and caught the prayer before its time ended, so his prayer is valid, if Allah wills. However, if he had tried to perform tayammum with something from his belongings or from around him that had dust on it, that would undoubtedly be more cautious. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
