ASALAAMU ALAYKUM hi

what do u do when dhuhr starts and ends while u are in class. can someone skip class and pray in the bathroom if they don't know where to pray? is your prayer invalid when you pray in the bathroom? If it is invalid, is it better than missing the prayer? Meaning I won't get sinned for missing prayer because i did pray? I don't know where to pray at school. please help. asap.
 
Wa Alaaykum As'Salaam

Your prayer will not be valid even if you have a good intention to pray in the bathroom unless you are not aware, but its something that everyone knows, and so do you. As you mentioned whether you will be a sinner. You do know people will be using the bathroom at any time. Salaah is to be performed in a pure and clean place. You worship your creature in purety i.e. by performing wudhu/ablution, why would you think its okay to perform salah in a dirty place?

There should be a prayer room at your school or ask for an empty room, they will provide you with one inshaa'Allaah

Wa Alaaykum As'Salaam

Wa iyaakum

Check this inshaa'Allaah

http://www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/153572/bathroom

It is mentioned you can pray anywhere..except the bathroom i.e. unclean place or graveyards..

But your situation is not such as of in the link I posted where you are completely unable to pray, you may pray in the hallway when classes start, so its empty or anywhere private that you feel comfortable,inshaa'Allaah..what I mean it is certainly not something recommended.

Combining salaah is an option, but I hope that someone can clarify this for you even more.. please be patient for a better reply.
 
how can you even think of praying in the bathroom, it would be a massive insult to God

and how can duhr start and finish during lessons? no one has more than 2 hours of lessons at a time, just go and find an empty corridor or classroom where you can pray
 
asalaamu alaykum because class starts at 12 and ends at 1:30 then u must go to the next class. right now dhuhr is like 1:30 to almost 5 so i have a lot of time to go home at almost 3:25 and arrive home and do dhuhr but in the winter it will be 12 something until 2:30 mostly because of daylight saving time. n im too scared to pray in the halls because the kids do bad things .i will just have to talk to the princiapl i guess nd i forgot about shayateen in bethrooms i saw somewhere that u can pray there if there isnt any other place so i thought idint knew it was an insult. to God

No there are certainly places to perform your salaah. I remember when I was working at this place, and they had no prayer rooms, I asked them for permission to pray in an empty room, and they smiled and gave me a quite praying room area alhamdulilaah. So if you could kindly ask a teacher, principal whoever you will, ask them to provide an empty room for you, where nobody will come in, and it takes only like 5 mins to pray.


Also the fact you have to understand, what is the point of performing wudhu, cleaning yourself for prayer, when your just to going to end up praying in a dirty place? I mean if you were even to pray in a room you'd ensure its clean atleast. If it makes salaah invalid without wudhu, how is it valid praying in a dirty place. The whole earth is a place to pray, meaning there are plenty of places to pray already for you as long as they are clean. Allaah has made it easy on you, dont make it hard for yourself.

I dont understand, is there like no prayer room involved? All schools, colleges i've been to always had one.

Insha'Allaah they provide you with an empty room. And as far as I am aware combining prayers is usually out of necessity, like when your travelling, sickness, fear for oneself or for ones property etc.
