The ruling on combining prayers in the Sacred Mosque for a traveler

Question:
The questioner says: I combined the Dhuhr and Asr prayers in the Sacred Mosque, where the bus was moving at one and a half [speed]. One of the students of knowledge objected to me, saying that combining prayers in the Haram is not permissible. Is his statement correct?

Answer:
If you are a traveler, it is permissible to combine prayers in the Haram and elsewhere, if you are a traveler. But if you are a resident and you intend to travel, you do not combine, because you have not become a traveler. However, if you were a traveler from the start, and you passed through Makkah and stayed there for a short period, then continued your journey, there is no harm in combining. You pray the current prayer with the imam, then combine with it the upcoming prayer, either Asr or Isha. Yes.
