Sahih Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 41-51
Chapter 4: It is permissible to offer voluntary prayers atop one’s
mount when travelling, no matter what direction it is facing.
Ibn 'Umar
reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say Nafl prayer on (the back
of) his camel in whatever direction it took him. (Sahih

whatever direction it took him. (Sahih

Ibn 'Umar reported that the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say prayer on his camel while coming from Mecca
to Medina, in whatever direction his face had turned; and it was (in this
context) that this verse was revealed:
"And to Allâh belong
the east and the west, so wherever you turn (yourselves or your faces) there is
the Face of Allâh (and He is High above, over His Throne). Surely! Allâh is
All-Sufficient for His creatures’ needs, All-Knowing." (Quran 2:115). (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 43)
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. (Sahih

Sa'id b. Yasar reported:
I was travelling along with
Ibn 'Umar on the way to Mecca. Sa'id said: When I apprehended dawn, I
dismounted (the ride) and observed Witr prayer and then again joined him. Ibn
'Umar said to me: Where were you? I said: I apprehended the appearance of dawn,
so I dismounted and observed Witr prayer. Upon this 'Abdullah said: Is there
not a model pattern for you in the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)? I said: Yes, by
Allah, and (then) he said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to observe Witr
prayer on the camel's back. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 46)
'Abdullah b.
Dinar reported on the authority of Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used

'Abdullah reported on the authority of his father that the Messenger of Allah
(Peace be Upon Him) used to observe Nafl (supererogatory) prayer on his ride no
matter in what direction it turned its face, and he observed Witr too on it,
but did not observe obligatory prayer on it. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 49)
'Abdullah b.
'Amir b. Rabi'a has reported on the authority of his father that he had seen

Anas b. Sirin reported:
We met Anas b. Malik as he
came to Syria at a place known as 'Ain-al-Tamar and saw him observing prayer on
the back of his donkey with his face turned in that direction. (Hammam one of
the narrators) pointed towards the left of Qibla, so I said to him: I find you
observing prayer towards the side other than that of Qibla. Upon this he said:
Had I not seen the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) doing like this, I would not have
done so at all. (Sahih
Muslim Book 6 – Hadith 51)
