The Book of Prayer - Travellers

كتاب صلاة المسافرين وقصرها

(4) Chapter: It is permissible to offer voluntary prayers atop one’s mount when travelling, no matter what direction it is facing

باب جَوَازِ صَلاَةِ النَّافِلَةِ عَلَى الدَّابَّةِ فِي السَّفَرِ حَيْثُ تَوَجَّهَتْ ‏‏

This hadith has been narrated by another chain of transmitters and in the one narrated by Ibn Mubarak and Ibn Abu Za’ida (these words are narrated). Ibn ‘Umar then recited:

” Whether you turn thither is Allah’s face,” and it was revealed in this context.
