(O: The legal basis for the prayer, prior to scholarly consensus, is Koranic verses such as the word of Allah Most High, "And perform the prayer" (Koran 2:43), and hadiths such as the word of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace):

f4.14 It is offensive to pray:

f5.1 Clothing one's nakedness (O: from the eyes of men as well as jinn (def:w22) and angels, for these too see people in this world) is obligatory, by scholarly consensus (ijma,b7), even when alone, except when there is need to undress. (O: Zarkashi states (A: and it is the authoritative position for the school) that the nakedness it is obligatory to clothe when alone consists solely of the front and rear private parts for, men, and of that which is between the navel and the knees for women.)

f6.1 Facing the direction of prayer (QIBLA) is a necessary condition for the prayer's validity, with the sole exceptions of praying in extreme peril (dis:f16.5) and nonobligatory prayers performed while travelling.

THINGS OFFENSIVE IN PRAYER

f16.1 The prayer of peril may be performed when the Muslims are engaged in permissible fighting (O: whether obligatory, as when fighting non-Muslims or highwaymen whom the caliph (def: o25) is fighting, or permissible, as when fighting someone who is trying to take one's property or that of others).

(O: Eclipse refers to both that of the moon and sun.)
