I guess what you mean here is praying physically. Prayer is a thing of the heart. And should be a constant thing. Even when you are at work your heart should be connected in prayer, because you can receive feedback on what to do regarding your safety.

I would consider this true basing on the variety of options and knowledgeable points you added to this answer.

It can be possible but the popular one is Praying for an hour, though not some kind of legalistic requirement, is well within your spiritual reach if you'll simply begin where you are and go deeper from there. Perhaps, if you're being truthful, three or four minutes of daily prayer would be a significant upgrade from your usual habit.

There is no limitation in praying. We can pray how many times in a day. There is no certain rule for having prayers. But then, we still need to do the actions. It is a matter of completing oneself spiritually and do the actions in a holy manner.

That's true! Although outside your home were you pray there may be hours of operatiins. So I guess you mean if praying at home. I'm assuming. Probably not a good topic for detail without arguments

I always respect people for being religious. I can like them but no need to force myself. Because I know what I am believing in.

I think people can pray 5 hours a day. It all depends on your practice. Some of the time praying 5 hours a day helps with the health and some of the time not extending that much is a good idea. So it all depends on how you handle the prayers and health at the same time.

YES

 Why don't a person pray 5 hours a day?  There are many people in Hinduism and Buddhism who pray for hours, their lives are dedicated to prayer.

It depends on the person. If he believe on God very much then he can. But it is so hard to do pray 5 hours daily. It is very difficult.

Well, it's not common to a person praying for 5 hours. But a person who prays for 5 hours, maybe it is not a prayer anymore. It is called a Ritual!

A person can pray any amount of time they have available for the day since they will be closer to God and he will understand their school or work obligations that let them only be able to spend a certain amount of time with him in prayer.

Prayer is a way  of talking to God and should not be used as a weapon or something that people can compete to achieve the how long one can pray. Yes it is possible but can be done in intervals.

To pray is not by counting hours, you can pray five minutes and from the bottom of your heart better than a person who pray 5 hours a day and do everything bad in his/her life.

In the ancient times, that's an average prayer of a person that they kneel down on a corner and talk to God silently. But now in these seasons that was a long one. Even church masses don't last that long.

Yeah one can actually pray for 5 hours straight non-stop, because there are situations you find yourself that you will need to pray, the bible say pray without ceasing.
