Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Shibl says that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade designating a specific place for prayer in a regular manner, just as a camel designates a place for itself.

Hazrat Nafi' narrates that Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) did not designate any specific place in his house for performing prayers.

Hazrat Jumhan says that I saw Hazrat Saad many times that he came to the mosque and people were offering prayers. He would walk between the row and the wall and reach his place for prayer. He used to offer prayer near the fifth pillar.

Hazrat Ubaidullah bin Abi Yazid says that I saw Hazrat Miswar bin Makhramah, after the congregation had stood up, passing through the rows and reaching the first or second row.

Hazrat Muhammad bin Salih says that I saw Hazrat Qasim bin Muhammad used to pray in a specific place in the mosque and would not pray anywhere else except that place. I have also seen Hazrat Saeed bin Musayyib doing the same.

Hazrat Ibn Jurayj states that Hazrat Ata was asked about those people whose boat breaks and the time for prayer comes while they are in the water. He replied that they should perform the prayer by gesturing. If they come out naked, they should perform the prayer sitting down.

Hazrat Mujahid says that he asked Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz about those people whose boat breaks and when they come out, the time for prayer arrives (and they do not have any clothes on their bodies), so what should they do? He replied: Their imam will be on their left side. They will all form a row. Each person will cover his private parts with his left hand, but he will not touch the private parts.

Hasan, regarding those whose boat breaks and they come out of it naked, says that they will pray sitting, their imam will be among them, and while prostrating, they will lower their gaze.

Hazrat Ata says regarding people deprived of clothes that they will perform prayer by sitting and gesturing, and their imam will be among them.

Hasan says that a person submerged in water will perform prostration on the surface of the water.
