The five –daily prayer in
Islam should be offered at a certain
time when a Muslim is at home or is not travelling. However , some times
it is necessary to travel from place to place or from one country to another.
During the travel perhaeps there are no facilities for preparing oneself for
prayer, or the timing of the travel interferer with the proper performance of
prayer.
If there is no fear during
the travel, there is no need to shorten the prayer; and this was commented upon
by Omar, the second Coliph,who was asked why the God gave us permission to
shorten and join together prayer. Omar replier that he too had wondered the
same thing and said :”Then I mentioned this to the prophet (peace be upon
him |), his answer was that this must be
considered as one of the mercies of God: we have to accept it .”
