Prayer on a Mount in the City
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
What is the ruling on praying on a mount in the city?
If the prayer on a mount is an obligatory prayer, it is not valid, neither in the city nor while traveling, except out of dire necessity, such as when it is raining and the ground is wet, making it impossible for them to dismount and prostrate on it. As for the voluntary prayer, it is permissible on a mount while traveling only; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pray the voluntary prayer on his mount wherever it faced. As for in the city, it is not permissible.
