The questioner:
The questioner asks: Is praying in the open rewarded as fifty obligatory prayers?

The Shaykh:
What is the evidence for this? We need evidence. Praying in the open is valid if it is not at a grave, and the place is pure, and there is no congregation with whom he can pray; his prayer is valid. Yes. As for it being fifty, Allah knows best. Yes.
