Prayer is the second Islam pillar, of the five Islamic pillars, that no excuse for not been done except for non maturity (childhood or mind illness) and for women during their private days. There are some excuses for not fasting in Ramadan as being on travel, ill, or being old, etc... Paying Zakat (Charity) is excused for poor. Performing Hajj (Pilgrim) is excused for health, financial, or security reasons. However, for praying no excuse at all. Praying is mandatory when ill or not, having water for washing (Wudu) or not, on travel or not, when on ground or flight or ship, or when in war or peace, ... whatever the condition.

Prayer (the second Islamic pillars) also symbolizes the other four Islam pillars: During praying you witness the oness of God and the faith in his prophet Mohamed (peace upon him) which is the first pillar. During praying you are devoting some of your time (which is used for gaining money through work) which is a kind of giving charity (the third Islamic pillar). During praying, you keep fasting from drinking or eating or smoking or doing sex which is fourth Islamic pillar. During praying your direction is towards Mecca where Muslims go for pilgrimage (Hajj) that is the fifth Islamic pillar.
