Bus not stopping for Salaah

· 11 Muharram 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If a tourist want to travel at 9:30pm and destination to be at 6:30am. In this case how a tourist can perform fajr Salah without ablution assuming there is no water and the bus is unstoppable unless it reaches its destination? Note: Distance covered 450km.

Answer

Abstain from travelling with transport which will not stop at namaaz times. With a little effort you will get some transport that will stop over at the time of namaaz.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

How do I pray on a plane, ship or train?

“Performing fard salaah on the plane seat is not valid for the person who has the ability to stand and perform salaah. Hence, the salaah performed on the plane seat was not valid and one's fard did not take place.”
