The Ruling on Praying the Obligatory Prayer on a Mount
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the obligatory prayer on a mount valid or not?
Answer:
No, it is not valid except in the case of rain that falls and the ground becomes slippery, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did. The obligatory prayer is not performed on a mount unless the rain is falling over the heads and the ground is slippery. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed with his Companions on their mounts while they were on their mounts. This is only for the voluntary prayer. The voluntary prayer is performed wherever your mount faces, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did.
