Is it valid to combine the Zuhr and 'Asr prayers before traveling?

Question : Now, if I want to travel immediately after the Zuhr prayer, is it valid to combine the 'Asr with the Zuhr before traveling, given that I will be in the second country at the time of the 'Asr prayer?

Answer : As for if you are in your home country, no, you do not combine them. But if you are in the country you traveled to and want to leave it, there is no harm in combining the 'Asr with the Zuhr as long as you intend to travel before 'Asr.
