I was a little confused by what I saw the other day when out and about. It was dusk on Thursday and driving up the motorway when I saw a muslim couple on the hard shoulder praying. There was no build up of traffic so it wasn't that they were stuck in traffic and couldn't get to somewhere to do this. They were also only about 100 m from a slip road which leads to a nearby industrial estate with loads of safe parking facilities! Am I correct in thinking that prayer times are not that strict or should people pray at specific times? I thought it a bit odd that someone would start a journey if they knew prayer times would be coming up or not try and find somewhere safe to stop a little way into their journey.
