Chapter on the Prayer During Travel

أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلنُّعْمَانِ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ صَلاَةِ اَلنَّافِلَةِ عَلَى اَلْبَعِيرِ وَ اَلدَّابَّةِ فَقَالَ« نَعَمْ حَيْثُ كَانَ مُتَوَجِّهاً وَ كَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَ»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad by Ali ibn al-Nu'man by Muhammad ibn Sinan by Abdillah ibn Maskan by al-Halabi: (al-Halabi) asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about performing the supererogatory prayer (al-nafilah), on a camel or riding animal. Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes, as long as he is facing the direction (of prayer). And likewise did the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace be upon him and his family.”
