As salamo alaikome
Inshallah all my brothers and sisters at TTI are in good health and strong Iman.
I have a question about Salat. I plan to travel back to Morocco again in August inshallah and I am concerned about my prayers when I am traveling. Last year when I went to Morocco I wasnt a Muslim so I didnt worry but now I am and I dont want to miss prayer.
I will be traveling alone and for safety reasons I wont be wearing hijab. Most of my trip is within the USA. I will travel from Chicago to Cincinnatti then on to New York City. I have a 2 and a half hour layover in New York then my flight will go directly to Casablanca Morocco. My original first flight will leave inshallah Chicago at about 20 mins past noon. So just before Zuhr prayer which means I will be on the airplane during the time of the prayer.
The next prayer Asr will be during the wait time in New York City. Then Maghrib and Isha will both be on the overnight flight to Morocco. I know that when you are traveling you are given permission to cut the salat in half meaning just 2 Rakah instead of the normal 4 for most prayer. My question is how am I able to pray on an airplane????? Is it permissible to pray while sitting in the airplane and skip sujood and prostration? I dont want to do anything wrong so please if anyone can help I need to know.
Please pray dua for my safe trip. Jazakallah khairan.
