Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

Nafl (voluntary) Salaah on a mount (riding animal)

It was customary with the Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) to say Salaah on the back of a riding animal irrespective of direction. He performed ruku and sajdah by signs and nods. The nodding for the Sajdah would be lower than that for the ruku. [Zad -ul- Ma’ad].
