Question:
She says: I was traveling, and the adhan for the midday prayer was called while I was at the airport, about to board the plane. In the country of arrival, the adhan for the afternoon prayer was called, so I prayed the midday and afternoon prayers combined with delay. Did I do correctly, or what should I do?

Answer:
If the time for the midday prayer entered before boarding the plane, it is obligatory for you to pray the midday prayer; it is obligatory for you to pray the midday prayer. And if you combine the afternoon prayer with it, there is no harm in that, provided you are in the midst of travel and the airport is outside the country of residence. However, if the airport is inside the country of residence and the time for the midday prayer entered before boarding the plane, it is obligatory for you to pray the midday prayer in its time, and to pray the afternoon prayer in its time upon arrival in the other country.
