Question:
Assalamu alaikum wa rahma tu llahi wa barakatuhu!
Until recently I would often pray nafil and Sunnah rakats while riding a bike. Recently someone questioned it and I have felt doubt since and haven’t done it. Has there been itjhad on this question?
Jzakum Allahu Khairun.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Yes, there has been ijtihad on this issue. A Mustahabb namaz only may be offered while one is walking, or riding. Allah (swt) knows best.
