A prayer place for travelers, often called a "musalla" (مصلى) in Arabic, is a room or area provided so that Muslim travelers can conveniently and peacefully perform their religious duties (prayer) during their journey. This differs from a large mosque in that it prioritizes convenience and is located at transportation hubs or rest stops.

You can find prayer places for travelers in the following main locations:

1. Transportation hubs and stations:

Airports: Almost all international and domestic airports have prayer rooms, located in the arrivals and departures areas, and after security checks.

Major train stations: Central train stations, such as Bangkok Central Station or major city train stations, often have prayer areas or rooms.

Bus terminals: For example, Mochit Bus Terminal or Southern Bus Terminal often have prayer corners or rooms for bus passengers.

2. Along highways.

Gas Stations: In Thailand, large gas stations on major routes (e.g., PTT, Bangchak) often have separate prayer rooms for men and women, along with ablution facilities, to facilitate drivers.

Motorway Rest Areas: Large rest areas on expressways also offer prayer rooms.

3. Facilities within a Traveling Prayer Room

Generally, a good traveling prayer room should have the following:

A ablution area: This may include low-level taps for washing feet and cleansing before prayer.

A prayer mat (Sajadah): Clean and readily available.

A Qibla marker: An arrow on the ceiling or wall pointing towards the direction of Bitullah (Mecca) to ensure correct orientation.

Prayer attire: Such as a sarong for men or a telekung for women (in some places).
