Salah While Travelling

Prayer Does Not Stop During Travel

Travel can change our routine, but salah remains important. Islamic law gives travellers special concessions so that worship is manageable even away from home. For a qualifying traveller, four-rak'ah obligatory prayers are shortened to two rak'ahs. Fajr remains two and Maghrib remains three. A traveller should learn when the legal rules of travel begin and end from a teacher or reliable fiqh source.
