Once again, our family and friends along the east coast are in the calm before the storm… a huge snowstorm which meteorologists are calling Jonas. With blizzard warnings and school closings pinging alerts to my cell phone, my husband and I share the worry with our family back in Maryland as the hours tick down to the arrival of this huge storm.

Praying to Saint Medard:

It’s time once again to call upon the intercession of Saint Medard, the sixth-century bishop, preacher, and missionary, whose feast is observed on June 8. He is the patron saint for protection from bad storms. According to legend, as a child, Medard was once sheltered from the driving rain by an eagle hovering over him. The last time I wrote about praying to Saint Medard was two years ago in February of 2014 as Winter Storm Pax was making its way to the east coast. It dumped more than a foot of snow on the Baltimore area. As we get closer to the start of winter storm Jonas, let us again call upon the intercession of Saint Medard to keep our loved ones safe and to protect all those who are in need of shelter and warmth.

Prayer to Saint Medard:

Saint Medard, patron saint for protection against bad storms,

we ask you to intercede for us during the storms of our lives as well as the storms in nature.

Protect our families and our homes.

We pray for assistance for the victims of snowstorms, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters, especially for the upcoming snowstorm that is headed our way this weekend. Loving God, send in more helpers, and multiply resources and supplies for the aid of those in need. You calmed the storm on the Sea of Galilee; deliver us from the storms that are raging around us now.

Saint Medard, pray for us.

Amen.

How do you pray on your bed?

Praise be to Allah. Yes, it is permissible to pray on one's bed so long as it is firm and the worshipper is able to place his forehead and nose firmly when prostrating.

islamqa.info - Ruling on praying on one's bed - Islam Question & Answer

Praise be to Allah.

Yes, it is permissible to pray on one’s bed so long as it is firm and the worshipper is able to place his forehead and nose firmly when prostrating. Among the comments made by scholars about praying on one’s bed are the following: 1 – al-Hattaab said in Mawaahib al-Jaleel (1/520): It says in al-Tawdeeh: As for praying on one’s bed, there is no dispute that it is permissible, as is stated in al-Bayaan. End quote. 2 – al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Majmoo’ (3/221): The condition for obligatory prayer is that the worshipper be steady in facing the qiblah throughout the prayer. If he faces the qiblah and does all the pillars (essential parts) of prayer in a howdah or on a bed or the like on the back of a riding-animal that is standing, there are two views as to whether his obligatory prayer is valid; the more correct view is that it is valid, and this was stated by the majority, because that is like praying on board a ship. End quote.

3 – Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan (may Allaah preserve him) was asked: Is it permissible to pray in a raised place such as on a bed and the like if one is not sure whether the ground is clean and he has no excuse such as sickness and the like?

He replied: There is nothing wrong with praying on something that is raised such as a bed and the like, if it is clean and is firm and will not shake or wobble and distract the worshipper. End quote from al-Muntaqa (2/143).

And Allaah knows best.
