Question:
We have a call from Abu 'Abdullah from al-Qasim. Yes. Abu 'Abdullah, listen. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Good evening. May Allah welcome you. May Allah preserve you. Listen. What is the ruling on combining the Dhuhr and 'Asr prayers? I have work all year round. Is it permissible if the distance is two hundred kilometers?
Answer:
Yes, if you travel two hundred kilometers daily, going and returning, you shorten the four-rak'ah prayers and combine the two prayers, unless you are with a congregation in the mosque who are praying; in that case, you pray with them and complete the prayer. But on the road, you may combine and shorten the prayers, both going and returning. Yes.
