How do you pray when you are travelling on a plane?

Question

Hi!

So do you just pray as you can? or do you wait?

Salaam

Answer 1

You can pray as you can but you are not allowed to leave your prayers. IF you will wait so it will too late. It is better to pray as you can.

Walikumaslam.

Answer 2

wait till i land and get to the other country and pray the solat qasar

Answer 3

Pray Qasar Salat sitting in your seat and don't worry about your direction.  Allah is in every direction.  On ground we face towards Kaaba just symbolically to show that we are one Ummah of Allah who built the first House of Allah in Madina. That shows also that we are Muslims.

Answer 6

Salam for you my dear friend.Allah does not give us difficulties.We can pray while we are travelling in an aroplane on the write time which is informed by stewardess or pilot.Before praying,we should have a wudhu

through tayamum with the dust on the seat (chair) and with bismillah we rub the dust into our face and hands.You can pray just the same at home its number of raka'ats or we can use the lightness from AllAH just only 2 raka'ats for zhuhur and also for Ashr and it can be done at once (ja'ma  awal or taqdir) eg zhuhur and Ashr at zhuhur or zhuhur at ashr We do it by sitting in a seat.. .

Answer 7

You can do wuzu (ablution) using small quantity of water.  If water is not available you can do tayammum by touching on the wall.

There is an open space in the aeroplane.  You can pray salat there by qasr (shortening).  If space is not available, you can pray salat by sitting in your seat (Since you are praying without turning to qibla, you will have to perform the salat again after landing). You can pray Asar salat (2 raka'at) immediately after Zuhar salat (2 raka'at) before Asar (jam' taqdeem).  If you are sure that the flight will land before Asar, you can postpone Zuhar salat by making intention of the prayer after the azan of Zuhar and before the azan of Asar (jam' ta'eqeer).  You can pray Magrib (3 raka'at) and pray Isha (2 raka'at) before alighting in the aeroplane if it is time for Magrib (by jam' taqdeem).  If you are sure that the flight will land before azan of Fajr, you can pray salat Magrib (3 raka'at) after landing and also pray salat Isha (2 raka'at).  For this also, you will have to make intention before Isha waqth.  Pray 2 raka'at Fajr before sunrise.  The salat by jam' is not applicable to Hanafees.  They may pray each salat in their waqth without jam'.  The meaning of jam' is combining.

For performing salat by Jam' call azan and iqamath before the first prayer and then call iqamath only for the next salat.

Muslims cannot postpone salat under any circumstance.  Note that the jam' ta'qeer is not postponing.  Jam' and qasr are the concessions allowed by Allah to Muslims in their journey.  

Christian brothers!  You need to pray only on Sundays.  But, this is not the case with Muslims.  Allah has made the surface of the earth as well as air as places for worship of Allah.

Answer 8

What kind of question is this, it's like so common sense.

Answer 9

Habibti just like Ramadan

The Sick and The Travelers are excused from Prayer

We simply make up for them once we land, or once were able to

God is all Merciful and will understand

Answer 10

God is still above you.You can  pray Him closing both hands together.

Answer 11

its like the guy below me said close ur hands cuz God i s above you.

Answer 12

You sit and pray "Qasir." [Short]

For Zuhur, Asr, and Isha, you pray only 2 raqats.

For Fajr and Maghrib, You pray the same amount.
