The chapter on gesturing for prayer while riding during travel
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 1269 — The chapter on gesturing for prayer while
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : إِنَّمَا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ : فَأَيْنَمَا تُوَلُّوا فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ اللَّهِ سورة البقرة آية 115 أَنَّ تُصَلِّيَ أَيْنَمَا تَوَجَّهَتْ بِكَ رَاحِلَتُكَ فِي السَّفَرِ ، كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا رَجَعَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ " يُصَلِّي عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ تَطَوُّعًا ، يُومِئُ بِرَأْسِهِ نَحْوَ الْمَدِينَةِ "
Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that this verse was revealed « فَأَيْنَمَا تُوَلُّوا فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ اللَّهِ » [ سورة البقرة : 115 ] "So wherever you turn, there is the Face of Allah." That you may perform prayer while traveling, and your mount may turn you in whichever direction it wishes. (Therefore) when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from Makkah Mukarramah to Madinah Munawwarah, he was performing voluntary prayers on his mount, indicating with his head.
