The questioner : His third question asks: Is it permissible to pray in the place where a person sleeps? We ask for your guidance, may Allah guide you?

In fact, he may pray on his bed if it is pure, or if something pure is spread over it, due to the generality of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Ibn Majah 567Sahih (Darussalam) The entire earth is a mosque, except for what has been excluded. And this room where he sleeps is not among the places excluded from the permissibility of praying in it.
