Leaving the Friday prayer in the Sacred Mosque to combine the afternoon prayer with the midday prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible if we are in Makkah in the Sacred Mosque and we are going to travel after the Friday prayer, is it permissible not to pray the Friday prayer, but rather to pray it as the midday prayer so that we can combine it with the afternoon prayer and take the reward of two prayers in the Sacred Mosque?

Answer:
May Allah guide you. If the Friday prayer is present, pray with them, pray with them as the Friday prayer, and it suffices for you. Leave the afternoon prayer until its time comes, then pray it at its time. Do not combine it with the Friday prayer, and do not leave the Friday prayer by saying, "No, I will pray the midday prayer," while they are praying the Friday prayer. Pray with them, pray with them the Friday prayer, and you will get the reward of the Friday prayer. It is not permissible for you to sit while the prayer is being established and you are sitting; this is not permissible. Pray with them. Yes.
