Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned, may Allah preserve you, that if shortening the prayer is permissible, then combining prayers is permissible. Does this include the permissibility of combining prayers in Mina during Hajj?
Answer:
Yes, it is permissible. However, it is better to pray each prayer in its proper time while shortening it, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did. This is the better course of action. But if one combines them, he is acting contrary to the better course. Yes.
