We must perform every obligatory daily Prayer within it's time and never leave it to be Qadha even during traveling. We should pray it while traveling within our situation and abilities.

It is obligatory to perform Salah within nits time and it is not allowed to delay Salah till it’s time goes away. Praying in a moving vehicle or train is allowed especially when there is no other option to perform the Salah within its time.

Asr Prayer’s time starts immediately after completing Dhuhr Prayers, but if you want to separate between Dhuhr and Asr, then when the shadow of an item reaches two sevenths of it. 
Isha prayer can be performed after performing Maghrib Prayer and it’s Nawafil but if you want to separate between Maghrib and Ish, then after the end of reddishness on the west.

Yes, it is mentioned in many Hadeeths that sleeping between ASR and Maghrib is Makrouh (disliked) and cause many harms on health and well-being. It can cause mental problems and unhappiness. Hadeeth says: Who sleeps between ASR and Maghrib should not blame but himself when he finds disturbance in his mind. In Makarim al-Akhlaq page 333: Sleeping after ASR causes mental harm.

Nap during the day is good and called Qayloola قيلولة which is after Dhuhr till before Asr.

Wassalam.

Bismillah, 

Asalamu alaykom,

I can understand dear brother or sister how much of a challenge it can be for someone to do salah in a non-Islamic  work place. Some managers do not understand the importance of Salah for Muslims and may only permit for one to do it on their break. This can be problematic since the break period could be before the salah starts, or at a time when the salah could be qada. 

Usually though around this time in the summer, one has a lot of time to pray zuhr and. Asr. Of course it is better to pray them on time however not all circumstances may permit that. Let us say for example zuhr time is at 1:00pm but you could only pray it at 4pm. As long as maghrib time hasn’t set in, you would be still be able to do the salah within an acceptable time period. 

In many work places people go for cigarette or toilet breaks so if these were permitted but not a short prayer break, it could possibly be discrimination. How could one have a right to smoke for 5 -10 minutes yet a Muslim isn’t able to pray within a similar time period?! 

If one had very extreme circumstances where they had no other way, it is also possible one could pray in a bathroom if they had tahir mat. This is however makruh meaning the salah would have less reward. I do know of some cases where some were forced to perform salah in a staff bathroom which had a lock on the door. This way they could perform their salah without it being qada and without being prevented. 

You should try to speak to your non-Muslim colleague or manager and inshallah a flexible arrangement can be agreed on. 

Some ulema state that one must leave the job which would prevent them from doing Salah and must pick a job in which they are able to do salah. 

It should be noted that it isn’t permissible to purposely delay salah past qada time, so you cannot just pray them qada the next day instead within the set time.

May Allah grant you success

It depends on the nature of the mistake. Some mistakes do not invalidate the Salah, while other mistakes can invalidate the Salah. You may write some details so that I can understand the situation and try to reply your question.

Wassalam.
