Question

Is it OK to pray dhur and Asar prayers while sitting in the car because I work at that time and I have short time by 4:15 to end my work and currently maghrib starts at 4:30p.m. Please Advise.

Answer

Stop the car and perform the namaz on the ground.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
