The ruling on delaying the current prayer until arriving in the town
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for a traveler, if the time for the 'Id prayer enters while he is traveling, to delay it until he reaches his town and complete the prayer as four rak'ahs before the time for the 'Asr prayer?
Answer:
He has a choice as long as he is traveling, even if he is close to the town. He has a choice: if he wishes, he prays while traveling on his way, shortening and combining; if he wishes, he prays the current prayer on the way, shortening it, and delays the second one until he arrives in the town, where he prays it. He has a choice. And that he prays the current prayer shortened on the way and takes the second one until arrival and prays it in full is better and more excellent. Yes.
