Is it permissible for a traveler staying in the desert for one day to combine the prayers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Does a traveler have the right to combine the prayers when he stays in the desert for one day, or does he pray each prayer in its time and shorten it?

Answer:
The one who stops during his journey prays each prayer in its time and shortens it, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did in Mina. He was staying there and he would pray each prayer in its time, shortening the four-rak'ah prayers.
