Repeating the 'Isha' prayer for one who combined and shortened, then arrived in his hometown

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. We caught up with the Maghrib prayer while traveling, and we prayed it combined and shortened with the 'Isha' prayer. Then we arrived in our hometown at the beginning of the 'Isha' time. Do we have to repeat the 'Isha' prayer in full? And if we had arrived in the town before the 'Isha' time, would we have to repeat it in full with the congregation?

Answer:
No, you prayed a valid prayer while traveling and you fasted. Do you not repeat the prayer before? Because when you arrive in the town, there is no prayer required of you. But you prayed it as prescribed, meaning shortened, while traveling. As for if you prayed the current prayer and delayed the later one until arrival, there is no harm. But if you brought it forward and combined them, that is a mistake, especially if this is more convenient for you. And because the hardship—if a person is close to the town, he does not know what will happen to him; the car may break down, an unexpected event may occur, the near may become far, the traveler may face circumstances he does not know, and combining is more [appropriate]. So when he arrives in the town, praise be to Allah, he prays what makes the prayer valid.
