حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ، قَالَ كَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ يُصَلِّي فِي السَّفَرِ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ، أَيْنَمَا تَوَجَّهَتْ يُومِئُ‏.‏ وَذَكَرَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ يَفْعَلُهُ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Offer prayer while travelling .

EXPLANATIONS:
When travelling, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and his companion Abdullah bin Umar used to offer prayer on their mounts. This was done by using signs such as pointing in a certain direction or raising one's hands in order to indicate which way they were facing for prayer. This is an important lesson for us today, as it shows that even when we are travelling we should not forget our religious obligations and should make sure that we still perform our prayers regularly. It also teaches us that no matter where we are or what situation we find ourselves in, Allah is always with us and He will accept our prayers wherever they may be offered from.
