Intention for Combining Two Prayers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Among the questions that came to the program, the questioner says: Shaykh, is it required to verbalize the intention of combining with regard to the prayers? And is it required to have the intention of combining when starting the first prayer?

Answer:
Yes. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended.إنما الأعمال بالنيات وإنما لكل امرئ ما نوى
Sahih al-Bukhari 1
So the one who combines must have the intention when starting both and when saying the closing salam of the first. Yes.
